Sorry about that. I think 'bt87x' has snd- first, must check when I come 
home.

My system is still a stock Slackware 10 with kernel 2.6.7, Alsa 1.0.5b with 
the module packages prepared for that kernel, straight from the disc without 
changes.

Until: To make things easier I'd like to know what snd-bt87x actually does. 
My object was to record sound from tuners without the cables. To actually 
(re-)move this module is currently the only way to put my primary sound card 
as slot 0 so I can run aRts with all the KDE apps.

Yes, lspci has the Live! and C-media first, then the tuner cards. I think 
the kernel boot process goes out of its way to load snd-bt87x first as card 
0 and 1. If I can make /dev/snd/pcmC2Dx work I couldn't complain but mplayer 
says the device doesn't exist. I have a devfs which changes over reboots so 
I think it's there.

I've been looking into the 'index=' parameter, but it's hard to remember how 
to use all the parameters as Slackware loads Alsa just fine without such a 
modules.conf to start with.

Roger Andreassen.
