Greetings to all puppy-fans,
I am quite new to Puppy, have installed Puppy 4.0 and 3 on Dell Latitude D600 laptop and strangely the sound card cannot be detected at all in Puppy 4.0. When I run sound wizard, no card is found. In Puppy 3 it worked straight away, no config was necessary.
Sound module discovered in Puppy 3 is called snd-intel8x0. When I try modprobe snd-intel8x0 in Puppy 4, I get message that module not found. Can anybody head me where to look for more information on modules, where they are stored in the system? I heard that some modules are included in the kernel, others not. How can I add it to my system?
What confuses me the most is that it works normally in Puppy 3

Sound Card not detected in Puppy 4.0
Hi Jose,
Yeah, with a full installation it doesn't mount the zdrv .sfs file, (which contains a bunch of drivers). So try mounting this file to a temporary location & copy everything across to your full install:
Then reboot & see whether it's working.

Code: Select all
mount -o loop zdrv_400.sfs /mnt/data
cp -ax /mnt/data/* /
umount /mnt/data
