I have just been struggling with the same sound chipset. I think you have the wrong "driver" module. Starting about RC4 or RC5, the ALSA folks rolled the "snd-via686" module into the "snd-via82xx" module, and dropped the former. The ALSA driver modules for the 2.4.19 kernel are RC6, I believe, and the "snd-via686" module isn't present in my install. I would recommend you change it, i.e change:I am a bit confused here. I got alsa sound to work perfectly with the 2.4.18 kernel, but then I upgraded the kernel package (and the alsa-modules package) to the 2.4.19 variant, and all of a sudden I have no sound any more. This is what '/etc/init.d/alsa start' spits out:Warning: ignoring snd_major=116, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_cards_limit=1, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_mode=0660, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_gid=29, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_uid=0, no such parameter in this module Module snd loaded, with warnings Starting ALSA sound driver (version 0.9.0rc6): Warning: ignoring snd_major=116, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_cards_limit=1, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_mode=0660, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_gid=29, no such parameter in this module Warning: ignoring snd_device_uid=0, no such parameter in this module Module snd loaded, with warnings (via686) 'depmod -a' also reveals the following: depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.19-386/alsa/snd-vxp440.o depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.19-386/alsa/snd-vxpocket.o I attached the contents of /etc/modutils/alsa.

"alias snd-card-0 snd-via686"
to read:
"alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx" in the attached file.
Also, I have got mine running without any "options". If you still get the error messages after making the change above, I would just comment out the first "options" line too and see what breaks.
I get the same depmod errors here too, but they don't seem to affect anything that I can tell. I think they are for a different sound chipset...dunno for sure.
HTH,
