You need to add the proper aliases to /etc/modules.conf (which means you
have to add them in a file in /etc/modutils). i used alsaconf to generate
the file, then copied the appropriate section as /etc/modutils/alsa. Perhaps
the debianized alsaconf has been fixed since then to directly output to
/etc/modutils/alsa.

Anyway, my /etc/modutils/alsa is attached as a sample. You'll have to
change the alias sound-card-# and 'options' lines to match your
configuration.

Alsa problem - can't locate module sound-slot-0

1999-11-16 Thread Randy Edwards
   I've changed my sound around to Alsa and since I use a custom kernel I
went the Alsa source route.  I followed the instructions in the
debian/README file religiously and generated my Alsa modules.  However, upon
running them I get the message that modprobe: Can't locate module
sound-slot-0.

   Not surprising, since there isn't such a module. :-)  Anyone know a fix
to this and/or how this module gets generated?  Whacks with a clue-bat would
be appreciated, TIA.

This is what eventually worked for me, with a different card:

it's part of a whole collection of ALSA driver docs at
