Hi,
I am trying to configure the alsa packages in a RH7.2 linux box. But I
can't have them working.
I compiled and installed the drivers, libs and utils. The sound card is an
isa genius maker (cs4236 chipset I think , though sndconfig uses cs4232
modules)
I followed the instructions to stop the modules, (red hat uses sndconfig
in the startup scripts, and sucessfully configure the kernel native
sound drivers).
alsasound gives a core. I experienced a general crash
of the system sometimes when I thought the drivers were running.
If you have some clue of the problem you are welcome !!
(at the end i am posting the lsmod output and modules.conf)
I understand that, with OSS emulation, I can use typical applications to
test the ALSA drivers. Is it OK ?
Regards,
Claudio Pastorino
