There is some risk on the bleeding edge of any software, but I'm very happy to say that it's worth to try the 1.0.5a driver if you own that hardware. Once the annoying bug has been sorted out, the integrated sound of my Gigabyte works very well now. Thanks! Regards, Pedro --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the new InstallShield X.

[Alsa-devel] alsa 1.0.5 does not start modules
Hello list, after compiling the new 1.0.5 packages, the sound modules do nor start correctly, resulting in an unbootable system, or more correctly an unrebootable system. The system hangs after, in my case, both sound card modules loaded (loading snd-intel8x0 done loading snd-ice1712 done). The booting process stops there without further notice from the kernel. When I try to reboot from there by ctrl-alt-del the shutdown process stops, when the sound drivers are tried to be shutdown. The system is not freezed but unusable. I can switch consoles but not log in anymore (consoles are probably already shut down). I have no idea if or how I can get some appropriate logfiles for this problem. I downgraded to alsa 1.0.5rc1 again, which works fine. However, I kept envy24control from alsa-tools-1.0.5, which is compileable and solved my problem from yesterday... Please ask for logfiles specifically (how to make and where to find), if someone needs them.
