The drivers for your sound card are not loaded. |

This would be handled by alsaconf, or manually by you in alsamixer, but |
| 30 |
your card is not found or loaded so naturally alsasound has nothing to |
| 31 |
work with. |

This last instruction was incorrectly formed; the syntax is |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
rc-update <action> <service> <runlevel> |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
So it should have been |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
rc-update add alsasound boot |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
but that won't help if alsaconf has not succeeded in finding your sound |
| 49 |
card in the first place. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
Have you modprobed the appropriate modules for your motherboard and/or |
| 52 |
sound card before attempting to run alsaconf? |
