if I logout and log back as another user it still works.  Just not if I reboot.

I could not SU  and then modprobe the driver. Says command not found.

RH8.0 detected the SBlive just would not load the driver.
I had to alias audio in Modules.conf and load the module manually.
When I ran the redhat-config-soundcard it says..
Vendor: Creative Labs
Model: SB Live! EMU10K1
Module: Not loaded
