I just gave the 2.5.5-pre1 kernel a whirl.  Just to be different,
I compiled all sound support into the kernel rather than as
modules.  On startup I get:

Feb 14 15:43:55 baldrick kernel: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.0beta10.
Feb 14 15:43:55 baldrick kernel: kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k snd-card-0, errno = 2

Feb 14 15:43:55 baldrick kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 5 for device 00:0a.0
Feb 14 15:43:55 baldrick kernel: ALSA device list:
Feb 14 15:43:55 baldrick kernel:   #0: Sound Fusion CS46xx at 0xda800000/0xda000000, irq 5

And then later there are all sorts of problems, such as

cat /proc/asound/cards

claims there is no such device.

Must sound support be compiled as modules?

Thanks,

Duncan.
