In other lists I recieved some ideas, like compiling into the kernel instead of a module, that also did not work for me. Basically it appears that if you have a via 8233/A you are buggered unless those that know how to make it work are for some reason remaining utterly silent while the rest of us struggle and tell each other it can't be done or if you are very lucky it might work for a little while for some magic reason you will never figure out.
I guess you could say its stable, but it sure doesn't seem very useable to me. I am quite good at getting things to work, even when they don't want to, but nothing I do can make ALSA functional so just how useable is that?
That doesn't necessarily mean that the ALSA source is to blame. There
are plenty of other people who have managed to get it work very nicely
(in many cases, much better than OSS could provide).
The fact that it doesn't work is not upsetting. The fact that it is becomming the new Linux standard and still doesn't work is.
