thx.. pls help me :S

:( seems no one can help me :P

You will need snd_intel8x0 and snd_ac97_codex enabled as modules.
What I do is put a "*" for alsa support and then "m" for everything else.
Also enable the oss stuff under alsa and don't enable oss sound support.

There are major issued with AC97 sound with the 2.6 kerel. It's really hit and miss.

comprookie2000 fortunatelly alsaconf worked with those modules thx.. :D
but now for multichannels support how i should do it? just saying the software to use alsa?
for example in xmms i can use the alsa output plugin, but for some softw. like amsn how should i do that?
any command to set?

If its working its a good idea to run as root
alsactl store
to store the mixer settings
I don't know amsn
