alsaconf repeated modules

I have been setting up a new MythFrontend over the past couple of days. In my exhausted state I stupidly ran alsaconf twice and now have repeated modules that are being complained about at boot time.

Does anyone know which file do I need to edit, or what I need to run, to clear out the repeated modules?

Thanks!

Here's a snippet of my dmesg output:

bump

As an alternative question, how would I go about removing the modules entirely and re-adding them, only doing so just once this time?

Thanks in advance for any ideas!

Ben

Thanks for your response, I was beginning to think I was the only person using Gentoo suddenly :-)

Sorry, let me clarify thhe problem. It isn't that the ALSA modules are loaded more than once.

The problem is that I ran alsaconf more than once and that added something to a boot script that attempts to load the ALSA modules more than once at boot time.

check to see if your sound card modules are in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
that would definetely cause it. If all else fails re-run alsaconf.

Haha - I tried that already, that's what got me in this problem :-)

When I first noticed that I had the modules attempting to load twice I ran alsaconf again and now I have them attempting to load 3 times.

alsaconf didn't put them in modules.autoload, that would be much too easy :-)

It's also not in /etc/modules.d/alsa. The modules are only in there once.

It's a PITA!
