This might not be the best place to ask this but.. :o Anyway.. I'm trying to learn about Linux and have already managed to get a lot of stuff to work the way I want, but I cannot figure out the following error message:

# modprobe via82cxxx_audio

/lib/modules/2.4.7-10/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o: insmod via82cxxx_audio failed
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.7-10/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o: insmod/lib/modules/2.4.7-10/kernel/drivers/sound/via82cxxx_audio.o failed

I'm getting close but I don't know what to make of that error.. can I somehow pass the correct parameters to the module?? This is on a Redhat 7.2 box btw.. Thanks for any help.

Also.. how can I pipe the output of a command to a text file?

Well I can't help with the rest, but I can help you with that:

command > yourfile.txt

You can then open it with "less" or a text editor like emacs or pico:

pico yourfile.txt

did you run the command sndconfig? if so what happens. also check to see if your soundcard is even supported with redhat.

you might need to run insmod to install the module or just hard code it into /etc/modules.conf. good luck
