I tried it from /etc/init.d/boot.local (SuSE doesn't have a 
/etc/rc.d/rc.local) but I'm sure that the module is being loaded (or loaded 
twice with your code in!).

Stangely (or maybe not) while /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss exists, init 
reports that it doesn't (it exists as an empty document, owned by root).

I daresay I should have anticipated some kind of glitch using a RedHat rpm on 
SuSE, but the rest of it all seems to work just fine (and worked OK on RedHat 
before it was brutally murdered by up2date).

Has anyone got sound to work from the rpm on SuSE 8? Cees? (Worked fine with 
source generated VM/Plugins on SuSE 6.4 with alsa).

Alternatively, I've either got to learn how to use VMMaker (I know, one day 
it'll be the easy way to do it) or some kind soul can point me to a 3.2 final 
source snapshot.

Cheers
