Well, for some reason the kernel's ESS Solo-1 sound driver seems to
bleep and click a lot.. (Running ESD).  OSS's commercial driver
doesn't.. so I figured I would try ALSA..  and it seems to work great.

Now, I can't get it to load on startup..  Something is happening to my
modules.dep file and I have to run depmod manually to correct every time
I boot.  Why?  What is changing my modules.dep file?  I know rc.sysinit
is supposed to run depmod on startup, but every time I startup I have an
old modules.dep file without any of the alsa drivers/modules in it.  (I
looked at rc.sysinit more carefully and it wasn't running depmod at
startup)  How did the old modules.dep file show up?

I searched the rc.d scripts but I can't seem to find anything the
changes the modules.dep file.  Anybody have any clue(s)?
