BIOS settings ... always important.

Your module should be loaded like this -
modprobe cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0

Sometimes the cs4232 driver may fail to load properly unless the various modules it depends on are loaded in a particular order. If no success, try this -

modprobe sound
insmod ad1848
insmod uart401
insmod cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0

Thank you tempestuous, and all the rest. It now works. This has got to be one of the best forums around for actually helping with problems instead of just racking up posts.

Another ?, I'm not familiar with Grub, can somebody tell me what file to edit so that the default boot mode would be fb1024x768 instead of the present default? Thanks again!

Look in /mnt/yourfrugalpartition/boot/grub for the menu.list file.

Try adding ' vga=791 ' to your active kernel line - i.e.

kernel /boot/linux24 quiet vga=791 acpi=off noscsi frugal dma toram

Give it a try, and let us know..

Kent,
I never tried your suggestion because I figured it out before your last post. What I did was edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and change default to 2 instead of 0. I also I also set the timeout to 5 instead of 15 so it would boot a little faster. I've never used Grub before, but it seems pretty easy to configure.
