Author: D Smilay Date: Subject: uninstalling sound in RH 6.0
I have never been able to get the sound to work on my firewall, and since I
hardly use it anyway, I pulled the sound card out to use elsewhere. I am
wondering the best way to disable sound on that machine. Should I just
comment out the lines in conf.modules and rc.sysinit ?
There is a section of 17 lines of code in rc.sysinit that begins:
# load sound modules
I think these are the sound related lines in conf.modules:
alias sound sb
pre-install sound insmod sound dmabuf=1
alias midi opl3
options opl3 io=0x388
options sb io=0x240 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=3 mpu=0x300 mpu_irq=7
Are there other gotchas? Or is there an easier way?
