Hello,

I just got a Kobian VIA P4M266 motherboard with via8233 oboard audio. I
compiled the alsa (0.9rc5) and installed it. When I try to install the
snd-via82xx module I get the following error:

(Sorry for the line width.)

 via82xx.
Restoring ALSA mixer settings...done.

What can be wrong? My /etc/modules.conf has all the necessary stuff.

  alias char-major-116 snd
  alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
  options snd-via82xx snd_index=0 snd_id="VIA8233"
  alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

  alias char-major-14 soundcore
  alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
  alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
  alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
  alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
  alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

Can someone give me some pointers for getting this to work? BTW, where
does the mixer settings get stored? Earlier, it was /etc/asound.state.
It is no longer there. 

If it helps, I am running kernel 2.4.19.

As an aside, I ran the setup program for windows. It says, AC97 Codec
not enabled in BIOS or not found. I checked the BIOS and it was enabled.
But, using the windows hardware detection, I could install the driver
and get the sound. Is there something wrong with the board itself?
