I have been messing around with the development kernel and I can't
get alsa to use the (kernel) module for my soundcard. It's the cs4236.
When I look at dmesg output I see this:
snd_cs4236: Unknown symbol pnp_init_resource_table

I have done a search with google and this is what I found:
http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2003-25/0151.html
I don't really understand what it means, but it looks like my driver
has the same problem. So is it a bug? Should I submit it?
Any workarounds?

Well the comment that several ISA devices still use pnp_init_resource_table (which includes your card) is kind of a kick in the but.

This patch removed pnp_init_resource_table, but several drivers under
sound/isa/ still use it, resulting in compile errors like the following


Basically what you are going to have to do is find the patch that provices the PNP cleanups and reverse it on the 2.5.73 sources.
Code:
cd /usr/src/linux-beta
patch -Rp0 < /path/to/patch-about-pnp.patch


Personally id try mm-sources see if they work, otherwise go back to your last working development kernel.undefined
