can't modprobe my soundcard
Redhat 8.0 kernel 2.4.20-28.8
I recently installed the alsa0.9.6 audio driver for my Realtek AC'97 sound. It seemed to work fine except I can't modprobe snd-intex8x0 . The message I get is:
init_module: no such device
...some other stuff...
insmod failed
I have an Abit SG-2 board with onboard SiS7012 chipset sound. I followed instructions for this particular setup very carefully and my sound seems to be working.
lsmod gives:

If I read this correctly, my Alsa driver is working. But why can't I modprobe the card?
BTW
Before installing the Alsa, my sound played mp3's fast, about 2X regular speed so a 3 minute song lasted 2 minutes and sounded like the chipmunks. Now it plays OK, but a bit distorted at full volume.
