i tried following the guide for the alsa install from this website, it said to

Code:
env ALSA_CARDS='emu10k1' emerge \>=media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.2c
and nothing was found from emerge only a .0.9.8 version. My kernel version is the gentoo dev sources 6.3.2 i belive. I can't seem to get it to work with this sound card. Yes I did change the alsa cards to my sound card but none of the emerge or package installs run throough without a error and the kernel was compiled with sound as modules.

The 2.6 kernel has alsa built in so you don't need to emerge the alsa-driver package, just enable the correct modules in menuconfig. Your might still need to emerge alsa-lib, alsa-tools, and alsa-uitls.

that helped a lil. still no sound though. I'm on my linux machine this time so I can pull all the configs. Also for some reason I don't have a /dev/snd directory. The kernel has alas as a module and the driver in as a module. I did the emerge for the alas-lib and such and had to play around but they all finnaly compiled corectly. Hope this all lets u all see my problem might be my onboard sound dunno.

Code:
lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
snd_pcm                91232  -
snd_page_alloc          9156  -
soundcore               7168  -


Code:
lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
snd_pcm                91232  -
snd_page_alloc          9156  -
soundcore               7168  -



Code:
# Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsa-utils/files/alsa-modules.conf-rc,v 1.1 2003/08/05 21:07:55 johnm Exp $

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore

## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.

##  ALSA portion

alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss

# Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=1





Code:

 grep audio /proc/pci
    Multimedia audio controller: Cirrus Logic CS 4614/22/24 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator] (rev 1).
    Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 80).

i d/l the drivers from alas, installed, then recompiled the kernel with the sound drivers installed with it not as modules. Then i restarted and everything works.
