ALSA Module problem in FC1: Help!

Hello guys,

I'm back, with another problem (i hope i won't encouter to much problems anymore)..
This time ALSA is the pain in the ass, i followed this guide: http://students.ee.sun.ac.za/~albert/archives/000011.html (yes! I even did compile a custom kernel!!!!)


when i try loading the modules like said in the sound matrix for my card (als-4000) with this command:
[code:1]modprobe snd-als4000;modprobe snd-pcm-oss;modprobe snd-mixer-oss;modprobe snd-seq-oss[/code:1]


this is what i get:
[code:1]
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-als4000
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-pcm-oss
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-mixer-oss
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-seq-oss
[/code:1]

[code:1]
/sbin/lspci gives this output:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-751 [Irongate] System Controller (rev 25)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-751 [Irongate] AGP Bridge (rev 01)

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)
[/code:1]

and

/sbin/lsmod gives this output:
[code:1]

[/code:1]

When I try starting the alsamixer i get this error: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device

and this is what's in my modules.conf (took the one from the sound matrix 'cause it also didn't work with the one from the page
[code:1]
alias eth0 3c59x
alias usb-controller usb-ohci
alias char-major-195 nvidia

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-als4000
# module options should go here

# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
[/code:1]

I could really use some help, I'm trying this to get to work for some time now, and it keeps on failing !!!


Tnx in advance

That sounds like you're running a different kernel than you compiled ALSA under -- your modules are not installed.

Also, you don't need a custom kernel -- the low-latency patch is already in the Red Hat stock kernels, and has been for like... forever.
