I have VIA onboard sound that has, up until now, been supported by every distro that I have previously used. However, Gentoo does not seem to recognize it. I searched Portage for anything containing "via":

Code:
emerge --search via


This was the result:

Code:

Three of the four results are masked. The only remaining one is not one that I need. Any ideas?

Put

Code:
ALSA_CARDS="via82xx"


in your /etc/make.conf and emerge alsa-drivers.

(You can compile the kernel with built-in support, but the ALSA drivers are probably better.)

Cheers...

The kernel bult-in support and the ALSA drivers are the same thing.... unless you are using 2.4 for some reason
