Hello,

I have been playing with getting my opti931 working under 2.1.102. I have
gotten it mostly working but am having some problems with kerneld. When
kerneld attempts to load the appropriate drivers (eg, when `cat /dev/sndstat`
occurs), it fails to do post-install on the driver (ad1848).

--------from /var/log/messages-----------
kernel: ad1848/cs4248 codec driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996
modprobe: post-install /lib/modules/2.1.102/misc/ad1848.o failed
-----------------------------------------

But, when I manually load the driver via `modprobe -k ad1848...`, it works just
fine, and all other modules are loaded just fine.

kernel: ad1848/cs4248 codec driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen
kernel: YM3812 and OPL-3 driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen, Rob Hooft
1993-1996
--------------------------------------

Here is the exerpt from my /etc/conf.modules file

--------------------
alias char-major-14 ad1848
post-install ad1848 modprobe "-k" "adlib_card"
post-install adlib_card modprobe "-k" "mpu401"
options ad1848 io=0x530 irq=7 dma=0 type=2
options adlib_card io=0x388
options mpu401 io=0x330 irq=5
---------------------

Any ideas?
