i'm not a great guru of sound and alsa, but i think you have to remove the currently loaded modules. For example, my machine has via8233 onboard sound therefore the (old) alsa module that i need to remove is snd-via82xx. i remove it with
/sbin/modprobe -r snd-via82xx and then use /sbin/modprobe snd-via82xx /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss etc.. to install your newly made modules, you'll have to change the via82xx to the card that you have. then i think you'll be ready for 0.9.1 or .2 you can figure out what modules are currently installed with /sbin/lsmod (run before you uninstall the module to figure out what is loaded) and you can figure out which module to install by running /sbin/lspci. the output of that command will tell you which sound card you have. then go to the alsa soundcard matrix to figure out which module you need to install for the card on your machine. i hope this helps. -------Original Message------- From: Ramanan V <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: 03/21/03 09:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Alsa-user] Problems ALSA 0.9.1 > > Hi, I finally got around to compiling the alsa drivers today , and grabbed the 0.9.1 release.
