I hope someone can help me.  I have a Red Hat 8.0 system with a
SoundBlaster PCI 128.  I haven't been able to get sound to work at all.
Since the oss drivers didn't work (sox would hang trying to open the
device), I decided to try ALSA.  When I tried to load the module, modprobe
segfaulted.  I am using kernel-2.4.18-26.8.0 from Red Hat, and alsa
0.9.1-fr1 from freshrpms.net.  If anyone has any ideas on what I can do to
get sound to work, please let me know.

I had the same problem. Solved it by downloading 0.9.0rc6 (note: RC6!), compiling and installing. That version works great. I've not tried newer versions, but the latest and greatest might, or might work. But, 0.9.0rc6 does work.


Ummm, is it possible that this is a compiler version problem? I'm using gcc-3.2 as shipped with mandrake??? Interesting that the OP has the same problems with 0.9.1 as I had with 0.9.0rc7 as well as the package provided with the Mandrake 9.0 distro.
