Hello,

Debian: Sarge
Kernel: 2.4.27-1-386

I have a problem with and audio card, I already
      
install
    
the needed modules in my case:

#lspci
(...)
0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia Audio Controller: Intel Corp
82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC97 Audio Controller (rev
      
02)
  
(...)

#lsmod
Module        Size   Used by  Not taited
(...)
i810_audio    21372   2
ac97_codec    11252   0       [i810_audio]
soundcore      3268   2       [i810_audio]
(...)

now the question is, if I have the correct modules
      
for
  
my sound card

1. why I can not hear any sound?.
2  How can I configure the sound card once the
      
modules
  
are loaded?
3. There is a command to do this?, which one?

I already try sndconf

I will appreciate any help or point to a source.

      
If you don't have any error messages, like devices
unavailable or like
that, and your user is in the audio group, maybe you
only need to
raise the volume, so you can try it installing a mixer
package...
(this is only a guess)

To pass some configuring options to your soundcard
(what options
depends on your brand or model) IIRC you can add them
on your
/etc/modutils file.

Thanks for the feedback, I already have a mixer, and it
does not work, I think may be I have the wrong driver
installed. Is posible load a driver even if this one is
not the correct?

I am trying other thing right now I did this
#cat file.wav >/dev/audio 
Device or resource busy



any idea.

Thanks again.

The modules you have loaded are OSS (Open Sound System?) modules which are installed for compatibilty. You may find you need the alsa modules loaded. Alsa (advanced linux sound architecture) modules all start with snd-.
lsmod | grep snd on my pc gives:

Try modprobe  (the above to suit what you want)
Alternatively install alsaconf.
