RE: [gentoo-user] Alsa kernel driver problem - fixed
Sounds like the wrong driver is being loaded. What is the output of lspci? From a console, what does modprobe snd_via82xx show and what's being sent to /var/log/messages?? I found that the Intel HD Audio module is also required, not just the via driver. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
