Re: via8233 & alsa --> solution!!
Hi all!
I have now the solution. As usual it seems easy now, but i was really
puzzled before,so i feel stupid... just kidding!!
Results from lspci -v (with new http://pciids.sourceforge.net/pci.ids

As you can see, there are a lot of people for IRQ 10, and the AC97 has
several function!
What is interesting is the I/O and IRQ. A cat /proc/pci confirmed those
informations (maybe they're linked? i don't know how they're managed!)
Anyway, i forced these settings in my /etc/modutils/audio (i called it
audio, it doesn't matter!):
#ALSA
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-via8233
options snd-card-0 port=Oxe100 irq=10 # this is the key entry i added to
make things working!!
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
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
and then update-modules and modprobe snd-via8233 and... miracle! it
works!!
Thanks for all the supports i received!!
