I'm trying to install Alsa on Fedora Core 1. Since I'm new to Alsa, I figured I'd get the rpm's (from freshrpms.net), and everything was going to be fine.
Following the instructions on http://freshrpms.net/docs/alsa/ I installed:
kernel-module-alsa-1.0.0-0.rc2.1.fr_2.4.22_1.2115.nptl.i386.rpm
alsa-lib-1.0.0-0.rc2.1.fr.i386.rpm alsa-driver-1.0.0-0.rc2.1.fr.i386.rpm alsa-utils-1.0.0-0.rc2.1.fr.i386.rpm
alsaplayer-0.99.76-1.fr.i386.rpm
(2.4.22_1.2115.nptl being the exact kernel version)
Then I added the following lines to /etc/modules.conf, and commented out my old (oss) sound modules:
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-ens1371
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# 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
During the bootprocess, or if I modprobe snd-ens1371, I get the following errors
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/sound/snd.o: unresolved symbol proc_symlink
/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/sound/snd.o: unresolved symbol register_chrdev

/lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2115.nptl/kernel/sound/snd.o: insmod snd-ens1371 failed
depmod -a confirms there are unresolved symbols in snd.o (and some other snd-modules as well)
I searched this list's archive and it looks like there's an incompatibility between the kernel and the kernel modules, but the versions are exactly the same (2.4.22_1.2115.nptl, doublechecked)!
Are there any other options, other than compiling Alsa (probably no big deal anyway, but if there's an easier way, I'd prefer that)
Thanks, Berend
