Hi,
I've just downloaded alsa-utils, alsa-driver and alsa-libs, all in
version 0.9.6 to use with my redhat 9 installation. I followed all the
instructions from the alsa sound mini howto, up to the bit where you use
/sbin/modprobe snd-cardname. I tried
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ymfpci]# /sbin/modprobe snd-ymfpci
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/ymfpci/snd-ymfpci.o: init_module:
No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/ymfpci/snd-ymfpci.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/ymfpci/snd-ymfpci.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/ymfpci/snd-ymfpci.o: insmod
snd-ymfpci failed
As well as a few other possibilities that I gathered here and there from
the archives of this mailing list. Here are the outputs of possible
commands:
