CM6501 soundcard problem

Hello!
I just bought a new computer with a motherboard ASROCK AMNF3-VSTA and onboard soundcard CM-6501.
This soundcard is not detected by FC5 and I didn’t find any information or driver for Linux. I looked on C-Media site too and they don’t even mention it.
If I try Soundcard Detection, it gives me the following error:
“Automatic detection of the sound card did not work. Audio will not be available on the system.
You can inspect /root/scsound.log and file a new bug at http://bugzilla.redhat.com.”
In Windows, in Device Manager this device is called “C-Media CM6501 Like Sound Device”
Can anybody help me to resolv the problem?
Thanks in advance

Re: CM6501 soundcard problem

The CM6501 is a USB device. Using the standard USB driver (snd-usb-audio) should work.

I'm a beginner in Linux. I tried to install alsa-driver-1.0.11rc2 and I received the following error:

[root@www alsa-driver-1.0.11rc2]# ./configure --with-cards=usb-audio --with-sequencer=yes

The file /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2239.fc5/source/include/linux/version.h does not exist.
Please install the package with full kernel sources for your distribution
or use --with-kernel=dir option to specify another directory with kernel
sources (default is /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2239.fc5/source).

The output for modinfo soundcore is:

filename: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2239.fc5/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko
description: Core sound module
author: Alan Cox
license: GPL
alias: char-major-14-*
vermagic: 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5 mod_unload 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-4.1
depends:
srcversion: 69B73D502EF87CE567454E1

What shoud I do next?
This Kernel 2.6.18-1.2239.fc5 appeared after yum update. Before that the Kernel was 2.6.15-1.2054_fc5.
Thanks for help.
