Yes... I have much experience in the matter...
... you will need to do the following things:
1) go the ALSA download (or one of their mirrors) and get the latest
alsa
driver. Get at least the 11 version , although 14.3 is out now. It will
download as a tar.
http://www.alsa-project.org/download.php
This is one of the US mirrors
ftp://ftp.silug.org/pub/alsa/driver
Get alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3.tar.bz2
2) untar the file on your local machine with
tar -xvjf alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3.tar.bz2
3) Read everything before doing anything--- FAQ, README, Makefile, etc.
4) Compile the driver for your sound card...
5) Install the driver
Before you do this be sure to remove whatever Yast has
done,,... use Yast to
do the removal. Install the driver according to the instructions in the alsa
directory on your system (where the tarball expanded). You will need to
manually edit and modify the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file , and you will
need to edit and modify the /etc/modprobe.conf
and/or /etc/modprobe.conf.local files. Also, once you get it rolling
manually, you will need to add snd-card-0 as a kernel modules entry in
Yast system configuration editor... but we'll cross that bridge later.
After you get things installed you probably will still not hear
anything...
because by default the alsa mixer settings are all zero. You will need to
fire up a mixer (Kmix, or alsamixer, etc) and bring the volume levels up.
Hope this helps you.
