I'm about to give up, not without posting this message to the list, showing all what I've done trying to get the soung to work.
Since I installed Mandrake 9, every time the machine is booted I get the following message: /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o.gz: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. After following directions from many sites, I downloaded and installed the NVIDIA nvaudio driver, with: rpm --rebuild NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0233.src.rpm perl -pi -e 's/i810_audio/nvaudio/g' /etc/modules.conf Now I get the following message: Warning: loading /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o will taint the kernel: no license See http://www.tux.org/lkml/#export-tainted for information about tainted modules /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.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 modprobe: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/drivers/sound/nvaudio.o failed modprobe: insmod sound-slot-0 failed The output from lspcidrake reports 2 entries for i810: i810-tco: Intel Corporation|82820 815e (Camino 2) Chipset ISA Bridge (ICH2) i810_audio: Intel Corporation|ICH2 810 Chipset AC'97 Audio Controller >From dmesg I get the following two lines: i810: Intel ICH2 found at IO 0x1040 and 0x1400, IRQ 0 nvaudio: unable to allocate irq 0 >From these two lines I guess the problem is an IRQ conflict, but I have no idea on how to solve it. No sound or soundcore is reported by lsmod. Am I missing something? Any help will be truly appreciated. Adolfo
