this is all with the stock 2.4.31 kernel. I've been trying off and on for a couple of weeks to get the sound working but so nothing has worked. After reading what I could find, and trying most of it, I've collected a lot of the system info into the listing below. Take a look please and see if you can spot what I'm obviously missing:

I didn't expect to see the card listed above since it's on the motherboard and not a separate card.
I did follow the procedure listed at alsa-project.org. According to their card matrix, (my chipset is a Yamaha ymf715) it is generic device that uses the opl3-sa2 driver. so I download the 1.0.10 driver, utils, and lib packages per instructions and install them. That seems to work ok, although with the usual collection of warning messages and errors whizzing by on the screen. I also pasted the appropriate stuff into modules.conf and created the .asoundrc file in the home directory for root.
root@darkstar:~# modprobe snd-opl3-sa2;modprobe snd-pcm-oss;modprobe snd-mixer-oss;modprobe snd-seq-oss
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-opl3-sa2
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-pcm-oss
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-mixer-oss
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-seq-oss
lsmod output:
root@darkstar:~# lsmod

I can however do this:
modprobe opl3sa2
and then lsmod gives this output:
root@darkstar:~# lsmod
Module Size Used by Not tainted
opl3sa2 7664 0 (unused)
ad1848 22028 0 [opl3sa2]

pcmcia_core 39460 0

and this then gets added to /var/log/messages:

per what I've found in some other posts, I've also added root to the audio group.
the alsa routines tell me no dice:
alsaconf says no legacy drivers found, and
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
I tried the 'aplay' command with a .wav file when at runlevel 3 and got this:
root@darkstar:/usr/share/sounds/alsa# aplay Noise.wav
ALSA lib confmisc.c:672:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '0'

Thanks in advance for any insight!
