I think you mean you're trying to make KERNEL work with your hardware... I have the same audio codec and I've never experienced any problems. I'm using: | Code: | | <*> VIA 82C686A/B, 8233/8235 AC97 Controller |
Are you sure you're using correct driver? Post your lspci output.

lspci recognises my audio chipset. but i hear no sound. alsamixer shows correct version and all arent muted.
PM800 works, but only 600x400 and 60HZ:-(

check what mode you've selected. I'm not using 6-channel mode for instance, so I had to disable some channels to get output from correct jack. Search for drivers from your card manufacturer (like from nvidia an ati), what is happening when you're trying to set up higher mode? I assume you're talking about Xserver...
