sndconfig(8)

NAME
       sndconfig - configure sound card for use with Linux kernel
       modules

SYNOPSIS
       sndconfig {--help,--noprobe}

DESCRIPTION
       sndconfig sets up the necessary configuration files to use
       a  sound  card  on  a Red Hat system. By default sndconfig
       will do an initial probe for PnP  sound  cards  using  the
       pnpdump  utility.   If  the --noprobe option is given this
       step will be skipped.  The user will be  notified  if  any
       cards  were  found.  Otherwise the user must pick the card
       type from a menu. Then the user must choose the I/O  port,
       IRQ,  and  DMA  settings for the sound card. These must be
       known ahead of time and depend upon the jumper settings of
       the  sound  card.   For PnP cards, the user can choose the
       values which will be programmed into the PnP device. There
       is  no  guarantee  that the values entered do not conflict
       with an existing non-PnP or PnP device. The user must make
       sure these types of conflicts do not occur.

   OPTIONS
       --help Print  a  usage message on standard output and exit
              successfully.  Gives complete lists  of  the  video
              card and monitor types recognized.

       --noprobe
              No  probe  will  be made for PnP cards, and the PnP
              configuration files will not be changed.
