hi Akkana

thanks heaps...
uhh...

which directory would the drivers be in? i have an awful lot of 
possibilities....!!!

yes, 2.6 will be great - i've been trying 2.5.9 with alsa built in which is 
fun... it was part of how i got this to work although at the moment i'm on 
2.4.18-6mdk and thats where i've had the most progress! strange...

yes, the ALSA wiki is good... i've been a bit shy to post there though, in 
case of looking an idiot... there have been some other questions about rare 
drivers there though...

best wishes

miriam
