Hi again! Looking at the INSTALL file at ALSA sources I found that your card receive similar parameters as the one I have, I think you should write a /etc/modules.conf file like his:
#ALSA Configuration alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 alias snd-card-0 snd-es18xx options snd-es18xx snd_port=0x220 snd_irq=9 snd_mpu_port=330 \ snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=5 snd_isapnp=0 #OSS/Free Setup alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 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 and a /etc/rc.d/rc.local file like this: #!/bin/sh echo "Sound is comming... ALSA" /sbin/modprobe snd-es18xx Well, I think it should work in your compaq, but probably your distro need the config files in others places and with other names, the one I send you, works perfectly in a SlackWare 8.0 or something with the same init scripts. Another advice is take a look at the control panel of windowz in case do you have it, and look what resources is your sound card really using (i/o, irq, dma, dma16), trust me it was the only way I could fix my problem with my card after two weeks of work. Good luck!
