My config :
Biostar IdeQ 200T with an onboard C-Media CMI9739A 6-Channel AC'97 CODEC Mandrake 9.2 : kernel 2.6.1 with alsa 1.0.1 (kernel-smp-2.6.1.1mdk-1-1mdk) and alsa lib 0.9.6
I use the snd-intel8x0 module.
This module does not work very well with this chipset. In fact you can't use PCM. When you launch xmms the sound plays but you can't change the volume...
In the alsa-devel mailing-list I found a patch by C.L. Thien (from cmedia) for the alsa 1.0.rc2.
I updated my kernel source with this patch, recompiled all and installed the new sound modules.
And now all works fine, I can change the sound volume in xmms, mute, unmute, all works ok ! (except the known bug with quake 3 : the sound loops when you enter in a map and quake3 freezes...)
Do you think this patch can be included by the alsa team in an official release ?
