Friends,
I have been going through the Gentoo alsa guide over and over and can't have my sound card to work. Here is what I have at hand:

Doesn't work either.
As far as I understood from all these, I have sound card that is recognized by the system, but not by alsa. I have kernel support but not a working sound card.
Can someone push me to the right direction?

Does that mean you didn't compile your own kernel, but used genkernel?
Have you tried emerging alsa-drivers instead of the kernel solution? Might be better if you're still scared of messing with the kernel (don't be though, just make sure that grub always have at least one bootable, working kernel).

There is your exact problem. I'd recommend giving the portage package a shot instead  |

Dear Arkanoid,
Thank you very much for your kind assistance.
After 2 years of Linux, I finally found the courage to compile my kernel [perhaps the shame I felt by saying that "I'm too afraid"]. I emerged latest gentoo-sources, compiled the kernel and then I ran alsaconf. It recognized my card perfectly and then by running alsamixer I finished configuring my sound card.
Man, Iron Maiden sounds good!
PS: I'm keeping my previous kernel as you recommended me. |

You're welcome. And yes, Iron certainly does sound good through alsa  |
