modprobe problem

modprobe problem

[Igor Gueths]

Hi all. I recently upgraded from alsa beta9 to alsa beta11, hoping to try
to fix the issues I am having with playing wav files with aplay, trplayer,
and possibly freeamp but I don't think so. By looking around in the
/lib/modules/2.4.18 tree, I found that my sound card module is located in
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/isa/cs423x. I go into this dorectory, and
type modprobe snd-cs4236. Modprobe then complains that it can't find that
module, but its obviously there. I never had to edit modules.conf with
beta9, I could always load the modules manually with modprobe. Why can't I
do this with beta11? I can edit modules.conf, but I don't really want to
if I don't have to. Its not that I don't know how to do it, I just want to
eliminate as much room for error as possible. Thanks for any ideas on
this!

Did you run 
"depmod -a"
after upgrading?

Hi Greg. I did run depmod -a and tried to load the module again and
modprobe still can't find it. I'll try that again though.
