I've got an Epia ME6000 board which I've installed LFS (I think it's 6.2, but can't remember now). I created a 2.6.24.4 kernel with the ALSA stuff set to modules. I've installed the alsa-library, alsa-utils, alsa-tools, but had a bit jip installing alsa-plugins (pkg-config was playing games). Though I hoped I could get some stuff working without it.

I run alsaconf (I solved the dialog error that occurs, so it at least runs), but it can't find any soundcard. I'm a bit stuck and I can't find any good info out there on how to get things set up properly. What do I need to do to get something like aplay to play a wav file?

I'd uninstall the kernel modules (kernel recompile) and just compile the drivers that are downloadable, I think the different versions number are conflicting some how, so in order to prove that wrong compile everything with the same version numbers.

Different version numbers of what?

I'm not entirely sure which drivers I'll need either.

Should there be a modules.d directory or something along those lines for some alsa stuff? There isn't one currently in my /etc directory.
