Hello
Trouble with Alsa drivers on a 2.6.11-gentoo-r11 kernel.
I did not have ALSA set up before, but in make.conf
'alsa' is listed as a USE flag.
lspci -v reveals:
0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50)
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. A7V8X-X Motherboard
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 22
I/O ports at e000
Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2
the kernel is configured with:
devicedrivers ->sound ->sound card support ->alsa ->pci devices
<*> VIA 82C686A/B, 8233/8235 AC97 Controller
<*> VIA 82C686A/B, 8233 based Modems
but this does not seem to do the trick. Upon reboot
it complains that the ALSA drivers are not found.
dmesg:
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver
Version 1.0.8 (Thu Jan 13 09:39:32 2005 UTC).
ALSA device list:
No soundcards found.
Granted there is no pci bus card installed, but, the system
should have 5.1 audio support.

The system also as an LML frame grabber board installed:
0000:00:0f.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Video
Capture (rev 11)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
Memory at ef000000 (32-bit, prefetchable)
Capabilities: [44] Vital Product Data
Capabilities: [4c] Power Management version 2
0000:00:0f.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture
(rev 11)
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
Memory at ee800000 (32-bit, prefetchable)
Capabilities: [44] Vital Product Data

Ideas on what I've missed or screwed up on this
AthonXP 2400+ system, are most welcome.
