Hi! I call uncle. I have reviewed web sites, and tried everything I can
think of. I need help.

I recently installed Redhat 9.0, and I have been trying to get my
built-in sound card to work ever since. Nothing but nothing that I have
done so far has given me even a peep. Absolutely nothing. I have gotten
the latest and greatest ALSA, and even upgraded my kernel to the very
latest, and still nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Here are the specifics:

AMD Duron 1GHz
528MB memory

KT3-AV motherboard with built-in AC97. The chip is labelled VT82C686B.
I have "Onboard sound" set to "Auto" in the BIOS.
Although probably not necessary, I also have "Enable Legacy Audio"
enabled, along with these parameters:
Sound Blaster        Enabled
SB I/O Base Address  220H
SB IRQ Select        IRQ5
SB DMA Select        DMA1
MPU401               Enabled
MPU-401 I/O Address  330-333H
Game Port (200-207H) Enabled

OK. I have these:
alsa-driver-0.9.4
alsa-lib-0.9.4
alsa-utils-0.9.4

I compiled the drivers with:
./configure --with-cards=via82xx --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes
--with-debug=full

I load the sound cards with these showing up in syslog:
Jun 22 11:14:43 server kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 00:07.5
Jun 22 11:14:44 server kernel: ALSA
../../alsa-kernel/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c:2150: AC'97 0:0 analog
subsections not ready

An lsmod shows:

uname of my system:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]# uname -a
Linux server 2.4.21 #4 SMP Sun Jun 22 09:44:06 MDT 2003 i686 athlon i386
GNU/Linux

asound exists, with everything looking right. I won't post the contents
of everything in /proc/asound, but here is /proc/asound/cards:
0 [rev50          ]: VIA686A - VIA 82C686A/B rev50
                     VIA 82C686A/B rev50 at 0xdc00, irq 10

And it even looks like I'm getting interrupts. When I cat
/proc/interrupts, I get:
 10:      59461          XT-PIC  VIA686A

But still no sound.
