Hi all. I have problems loading the Alsa drivers in kernel 2.6.3 on my debian testing box. I get the following error: Starting ALSA (unknown version): failed - ALSA modules not installed I know i compiled them as modules. When I try modprobe snd I get: pingu:~# modprobe snd -v insmod /lib/modules/2.6.3/kernel/sound/core/snd.ko device_mode=0660 snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 snd_device_mode=0660 snd_device_gid=29 snd_device_uid=0 FATAL: Error inserting snd (/lib/modules/2.6.3/kernel/sound/core/snd.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
dmesg says: snd: Unknown parameter `snd_major' snd: Unknown parameter `snd_major' snd: Unknown parameter `snd_major'
I have some alsa stuff installed since I used alsa with the 2.4 kernel earlier. OSS works as expected ( I copiled is as a module too).
My sound card used the module es1371 or ens1371.
Can someone point me in the right direction ? I have googled around but cant
find relevant stuff.
Regards Kenneth
What alsa software do you have installed? I think my alsa configuration started working when I did a 'dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base' and told it which sound card to use. It didn't work properly for me at first, but a second configuration was successful. I also didn't try to get alsa working on this computer until I installed a 2.6 kernel, if that makes a difference.

I have already tried to do that. No sucess. I have had alsa for a numer of 2.4 kernels. They worked ok. I read somewhere about that somewhere the naming changed. It seems like that since i get:
snd: Unknown parameter `smajor
before i got
snd: Unknown parameter `sndmajor
Therefore i think it is related to some configuration in debian rather than kernel.
