Hi,

I've installed Redhat 9.0 on my new Asus P4PE motherboard with Analog
Device's SoundMax AD1980 on-board sound. When the standard installation would not
give me any sound I downloaded and installed the current ALSA 0.9.4 version
(driver/libs/utils/oss), configuring the driver with

./configure --with-cards=all --with-sequencer=yes
--with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4 --with-oss=yes

When I invoke "alsasound status" I get returned

"ALSA sound driver loaded."

but when I start alsamixer I get the error message:

"function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"

and a "/sbin/modprobe snd-intel8x0" gives:

/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.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/snd-intel8x0.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.o: insmod snd-intel8x0
failed

>From searching in the archives I found that there might be a conflict with
the loaded "i810_audio" OSS module. However, it seems there is no place in the
start-up scripts that directly loads this module, so I suspect that Redhat's
"kudzu" hardware detection installs it. Is this the problem and if so, how
can I switch off the autodetection of the sound chip?

Many thanks -- Frank
