I've been struggling for weeks trying to fix this problem ,
I'm running redhat 9 with kernel version 2.4.20-13.9 alsa version 0.9.4 on an athlon pc using the i386 kernel
I've got 2 sound cards in my machine , an onbaord one - which i disabled in the bios. and a Genius sound maker live using the
snd-fm801. The actual module has been renamed to "forte" , was wondering if this is related to the problem ,because on the alsa-project homepage they refer to module as snd-fm801 still and i use this when i compile the alsa driver , altho the driver is called forte if i do an lsmod i have this
forte 14420 0 (unused) snd-mixer-oss 16312 0 (unused) snd 43364 0 (autoclean) [snd-mixer-oss] ac97_codec 13064 0 soundcore 5892 0 [snd]
i've tried src rpms and now busy with src tarballs. i couldn't get the driver loaded when installed the rpms when i try to run alsamixer i get this
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
So the driver is not loading my /etc/modules.conf as follows :
alias eth0 tulip alias usb-controller usb-ohci
#ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 forte (as you can see here the module is now called forte)
#First sound card onboard disabled #alias snd-card-0 snd
# module options should go here options snd major=116 cards_limit=1 # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 #Onboard
# card #1
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
alias char-major-195 nvidia
options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=0 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=0
when i do the modprobe modprobe snd-fm801

/lib/modules/2.4.20-13.9/kernel/sound/acore/snd-hwdep.o: insmod snd-fm801 failed
but should i be loading the module forte only instead?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
