Description Mark Knecht 2004-08-02 10:12:53 UTC
I am filing this bug based on information from Gentoo-Users and not my own specific knowledge about the subject. If I am mistaken then please jsut give me some guidance and then close the bug. I'm definitely a bit confused.

The problem is that modprobe.conf on my system appears to have incorrect contents for Alsa. I'm attaching /etc//modules.d/alsa, along with the files created by running modules-update. The modules.conf file has the correct Alsa stuff while the modprobe.conf does not, and for whatever reason seems to have a Sound Blaster.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run modules-update
2. Look at the generated files

Actual Results:  
Attached.

Expected Results:  
The contents of /etc/modules.d/alsa should be in modprobe.conf like they are in
modules.conf
