[Sheflug] Alsa Setup

["Wonkey Donkey" <wonkey_donkey [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ive been trying to setup alsa through the kernel, on my laptop, but it wont 
play (No pun intended!).

Im using Gentoo, and a 2.6.10 kernel, with the necessary alsa options 
selected.

I then added the alias to etc/modules.d/alsa like so:

alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0

And then ran modules-update.

I then added alsasound to the default runlevel and rebooted, but no luck at 
all.

If i disable it in the kernel and use the alsa-driver, it works fine.

The only other thing i thought about was adding snd_intel8x0 to the 
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6

But I distinctly remember on an older version(only slightly older), I never 
had to do that.

Can anybody help plz ?

Steve.
