Hi Guys,i need to load trident.o to get sound working. but when i give the command modprobe trident.o i get the message "modprobe: cant locate module" then i gave the whole path under /lib i still got the same error. when i searched the web some body suggested that i should have the following entry in modules.conf alias trident.o off i tried it but this file just doesnt save. it is read only. please help out. thank you.

Hi ^thehatsrule^,i did insmod trident.o i got a bunch of unresolved symbols. then i ran insmod on ac97.o, ac97_code.o, sound.o and soundcore.o. that solved a lot of them. finally i ended up with only 2 unresolved symbols pcigame_detach and pcigame_attach which module is this dependent on ? thanks.

I think it has to do with the midi/joystick part... "gameport"The advantage of using depmod+modprobe is that it takes care of all the dependencies for you. Posted by manishsadh on Feb. 10 2007,09:13
Hi ^thehatsrule^,thanks for your help. but i need more like step wise instructions. any command to know what are the dependencies for a given module example trident.o then load them one by one. i am using a sis7019 audio device. the computer is a diskless pc manufactured by < norhtec systems >. the manufacturer told me that "trident.o" is meant for this pc on kernel 2.4.x and should work out of the box. thanks.

There are some gamport modules listed under /lib/modules/... somewhere i think.If you want to auto gen the dependencies and use modprobe, copy the trident file to somewhere in /lib/modules/... and use depmod, then run modprobe. |
