Multimedia :: Sound with Via VT1708A

It made the driver. It's a module. You can load it with insmod /path/to/module
and if you have a debian-type install, you can move it to the same place where the other alsa drivers are and then just modprobe it..

Hi Curaga,

thanks for your help.

Today I tried again: This time I used the gcc with libs, so it compiled more and did not break up.

Unfortunately, the modules directory is empty, so I suppose it did not create any modules.

(Its hard if you try to install a driver ... and you do not even know the file looks ....)

I started xMMs and looked under preferences ... no ALSA driver offered. So it did not install it ...

Any ideas?

Hard to say like this.. could you make a tarball of the compile dir after compiling so I can take a look? Include all output (compile with "make &> log")

Hi Curaga,

thanks for your offer.
I will compile again tomorrow and send the results.

I wonder if DSL 3.3 would recognize an SB compatible USB sound card (I'd rather spend another 40 Euros instead of spending my nights with ALSA ....

Not sure.. But you could get a pci Sound Blaster 16 for 0,50$ that will work with anything possible for sure
