[K12OSN] Jim K's sound configuration question

[Rob Owens]

I deleted the orignal message, but here it is from the
archives:

<quote>
Okay now that I have all of my different vintage macs
booting as thins,
I need to figure out sound.  My initial thought here
is just like with
getting X to run.  I have installed local
installations of a working
Ubuntu on to each vintage mac.  I test X and sound
with the local
install and they both work.  I moved the XF86Config
stuff to the server
hoping that would contain enough info to get sound
working, doesn't look
like XF86Config is the right file for sound stuff
(correct me if this
assumption is wrong).  So now that I have X working
(by far the most
important part) I need to work on sound.

So, can anyone point me in the right direction on
where/how to find the
information from the local machine that makes sound
work and incorporate
that info on the server?

Jim,

I have the exact same issue.  I have a local install
of Mandrake and I want to use that box as a terminal. 
I found that the sound info is located in
/etc/modprobe.conf of the local install.  (This is for
the 2.6 kernel--I think with the 2.4 kernel it's in
/etc/modules.conf).

However, I took this info out of my /etc/modprobe.conf
file and put it into lts.conf, enabled sound, etc, and
on bootup of the thin client I get something to the
effect of "device not found" when it attempts to load
the sound driver.

So, stupid question:  is it possible that the irq for
the sound card would be different when I'm booting off
the ltsp server than when I'm booting that same
machine locally?

-Rob
