[64studio-devel] Simple question on modules.conf

[Dennis Schulmeister]

Hi,

I have a CMIPCI sound card built into my computer because it has a
working MPU-401 connector. Back when I ran Ubuntu on that machine there
was a problem with the on-board MPU-401 so I added another sound card
just for the midi port which worked fine.

Using 64Studio the card got recognized with all components but the midi
port. Some fiddling and clustyfoo[*] later I was able to get it working:

$ sudo rmmod snd-cmipci
$ sudo modprobe -v snd-cmipci mpu_port=0x300

The problem is how do I tell that to modules.conf? I know that manually
editing modules.conf is not recommended on Debian systems. On the other
hand update-modules is depreciated. What am I missing?

The other question is whether those changes are worth being incorporated
to the mainstream distribution.

Thanks for your replies.



Yours sincerely,
Dennis Schulmeister


[*] Actually I prefer www.clusty.com over Google.
