We can't support Realtek's driver on this list. ALSA 1.0.9 is old anyway. The unresolved symbols mean you installed the module incorrectly. The most common cause is compiling and trying to load new ALSA modules while old ones are still loaded. Usually a reboot fixes it. Lee Using Tomcat but need to do more?
