Lightbulb RedHat 8.0 + Avance 4000 Sound problem


So, after a long battle with my Sound Blaster Live! card, I just took it out and put an Avance Logic 4000 card in there. I am attempting to load the alsa drivers and utils and having some huge problems:

The "sound card detection" utility in Gnome recognizes the card and that its using snd-als4000 module. No test sounds play, and applications don't make noise.

When I lsmod, there is nothing like snd-als loaded. The only thing I have in there is audio and soundcore. When I do modprobe snd-als4000 I get:

/lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o: unresolved symbol irq_stat_R9135cb9c
lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/sound/acore/snd.o: insmod snd-als4000 failed

And... this is where I am stuck. I loaded the drivers, libs, and utils all RPM style, and uninstalled and reinstalled the RPMS just to make sure I loaded the correct ones. Still nothing. What would be the next step?

Thx,
Dave

I'm having the same problem with the same card. I'll let you know if I find anything out.

What was wrong with SBLive! these are the most versatile sound cards for linux, with RH it must go without a hitch after installation

Eh- The SBLive! got recognized and it loaded the emu10 whatever module, but I never got any sound out of it... but I think I am just going to reinstall redhat. I just wish I could figure out my driver problems rather than reinstalling, but I have been working on it for about 3 nights now <sigh>
I love linux when I figure out problems and learn from them, but I don't when I spend this long on something stupid, only to reinstall because I am out of ideas.
