  no, it's not maintained atm.
  it was designed for the old system.  since then, some things have been
  changed.
  
  iirc the following problems have to be solved:
  
  - rewrite the parser for outputs of new modprobe/modinfo
  - rewrite the code to use snd-xxx instead of snd-card-xxx
  - the module syntax description was moved from the built-in module
description to /lib/modules/XXX/modules.generic_string.
the parser must look at the latter file.
  
 
 since SuSE 8.0 autoconfigures ALSA in a breeze, perhaps they might be
 willing to share some of their yast2 magic ? ;) hint /

if ycp language becomes standard over the world ;)
(yast2 configurator uses its own script language.)
i myself don't touch much with yast2 development but just helped
debugging...

btw, for configuration of a single card, the modified alsaconf script
might be helpful:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/tiwai/misc/alsaconf

this is based on the old alsaconf shell script but enhanced with
pci/pnp detection.
it can detect even some of old isa chips without pnp (not always fully
functional, though).
