Last night I downloaded and attempted to install
alsa-driver-0.9.0rc1. Upon trying "modprobe snd-cs46xx", I was greeted
with:
/lib/modules/2.2.19/misc/snd.o: unresolved symbol vsnprintf
/lib/modules/2.2.19/misc/snd.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.19/misc/snd.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.19/misc/snd.o: insmod snd-cs46xx failed
After hunting through the alsa-user archives, I found this message:

All well and good, except I'm running 2.2.19 (Debian Potato). ALSA
0.9.0beta8 compiled and loaded fine on my machine (though I got no sound,
which is why I tried RC1). Does ALSA no longer support 2.2.x kernels, or is
this just an oversight?
My first whack at a configure line was like so:
./configure --with-debug=full --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes
After some fiddling around, I tried this:
./configure --with-debug=none --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes
--disable-verbose-printk
The resulting drivers loaded fine. But I still don't get any sound
(yes, even after fiddling with the mixer). And since debugging is turned
off, I have no way of diagnosing the problem. (The difficult sound card in
question is a Hercules GameSurround Fortissimo II.)
Any thoughts? In the meantime, I'll try 0.9.0beta9.
Thanks in advance,
Schwab
P.S: If you add '--disable-verbose-printk' to the config line, but keep
debugging enabled, the thing fails to compile.
