hi, first time im trying alsa here. also, i have not been able to get my sndcard for a
very long time now. hope y'all can help. thanks.
so, im on debian sid, kernel 2.6.0. my soundcard details are given below in the lsoci
o/p (its a sis7012). i got the latest stable releases of the alsa driver, lib and
utils. i compiled the kernel only with soundcard support enabled as a module. i
disabled everything else, as per instructions read on the debian howto, i.e. i
disabled alsa and oss under the soundcard section (which only has "soundcard support
enabled").
so, after installing the kernel, i proceed to install the drivers, lib and utils.
first try, i get an error about a function PDE, which i go and comment out in
include/adriver.h
after that, all goes along fine. then i try to modprobe snd-intel8x0, and i get FATAL
errors, and some of the modules get loaded (i have included here the lsmod at that
time).
can someone pls tell me what/where Im gooing wrong here? its been nearly half a year
since my laptop has been quiet on the linux front, while it works fine on the win32
front, and i dont like to boot into win32 just to listen to stuff on the laptop .
im including all possible details i can think of here (also, notice that modprobing
snd-intel8x0 gives me some weird output after a few lines), and i hope it helps you to
help me. thanks in advance.
