[Alsa-user] Cyrrus Logic Crystal CS4237B to configure

[Hulin Thibaud]

Hello alsa users ! I rode the documentation of Alsa to configure my Cyrrus Logic Crystal CS4237B (it's an ISA PnP soundcard) and I was install the last version of alsa by this link http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Alsa-sound-7.html . However, my kernel Linux 2.6.12-10-k7 can't recognize my soundcard. Indeed, when I type "setpnp 0f on", I obtain "lspnp: /proc/bus/pnp not available", however I installed pnpbios-tools_3.2.8-8_i386. Modules of alsa are loaded, and modules of OSS are stoped. Cursiously, with OSS, it works. I'm using Ubuntu on a dell latitude CP MMX 233 ST. Same result with the last GeexBox too. So, alsaconf had found my soundcard on mandrake 9.1, but not in my last configuration. A "sudo modprobe snd-cs4232"  produce  : FATAL: Error inserting snd_cs4232 (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/kernel/sound/isa/cs423x/snd-cs4232.ko): No such device FATAL: Error running install command for snd_cs4232 When I launch xmms from a terminal, I have these messages : With OSS : ** WARNING ** oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Aucun périphérique de ce type modprobe: FATAL Error running install command for sound_slot_0 With Alsa : ** WARNING **: ALSA_GET_MIXER(): Attaching to mixer  hw:0 failed: Aucun périphérique de ce type ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:802:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave ** WARNING **: alsa_setup(): Failed to open pcm device (default): Aucun périphérique de ce type What so strange, isn't it ? I post this message in Ubuntu Forum and I searched an answer with Google (our big friend), but noone has worked. Now, I don't know what doing ! I've seen that I don't alone with this problem. Can you help me ? An idea  to continue ? Thanks you very much ! Regards, Thibaud Hulin.
