Did the instructions like the alsa guide says but when i try to start alsa i get and error.

bash-2.05b# /etc/init.d/alsasound start
* Initialising ALSA....
* Starting sound driver: snd-emu10k1 /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r10/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r10/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r10/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.19-gentoo-r10/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.o: insmod snd-emu10k1 failed

in the dmsg i get EMU10K1/Audigy soundcard not found or device busy
EMU10K1/Audigy soundcard not found or device busy

for the last two lines. but doing a cat /proc/pci |grep audio i get
Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 8).

Any help will be great. I do have the module in the path it is looking for. Thanks in advance.

hi!

have you selected "Sound Card Support as Module" in your kernel config?
are there no other selected sound card drivers in your config?

hey, yep i just enabled that as a module. I have been playing around with it for a while and have gotten mp3's to work but they are quiet even with all the pcm and vol up but still can not get system sounds. Thanks again.

I second that! They work very well for my sb live. I tried the other 2 options as well, but the ones I got with emerge emu10k1 seem the best suited.
If you want to use these, be sure it have (OSS) sound support (as a module) and also "OSS sound modules" as a mosule in your kernel config. And also remove all of alsa from the system.

Code:

modprobe soundcore
modprobe snd
modprobe snd-emu10k1

modprobe: Can't locate module snd-emu10k1

and the same for the rest. Any ideas on why these are not loading? Thanks.
