I figured that out and loaded snd_hda_intel and snd_hda_codec_via. I built from
alsa sources and the latest are not in the fedora 12 2.6.31 kernel.

Unfortunately, with the modules built from alsa 1.0.22 the chip is
seen but no outputs
are selectable (nothing from aplay -l or aplay -L). Interestingly
using the 2.6.31 fedora
12 kernel modules, a generic HDA output is available but there are no
mixer controls.

I expect there still is a module parameter or two needed to select the
right config.
