Hey, My computer also has this- the card is made by Realtek, but the driver is snd_hda_intel. Forgive me for being redundant, but you DID reboot after 'Make install' right? If so, You may want to read through the output of dmesg and /var/log/messages to see if there's anything related to the sound card. If you're unsure, post them to the list and we'll have a look.

Hi Bjorn, Thank you for your time, I really appreciate it. Yes, I did reboot :-) The following is the result of cat proc/asound/cards; [graeme@flintstone ~]$ cat /proc/asound/cards --- no soundcards --- [graeme@flintstone ~]$ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.18a. Compiled on Nov 18 2008 for kernel 2.6.25.10-86.fc9.i686 (SMP). [graeme@flintstone ~]$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 cat: /proc/asound/card0/codec#0: No such file or directory [graeme@flintstone ~]$ The following is the result of dmesg | grep sound; [root@flintstone graeme]# dmesg | grep sound [root@flintstone graeme]# The result of cat /var/log/messages | grep sound is attached.Along the way I appear to have fouled something up altogether because I was getting output for dmesg | grep sound as follows a few days ago;

Perhaps I should remove everything and re-install the relevant packages. Also, should I have built the other alsa tarballs as well as the alsa-driver tarball? Could there be a mis-match between package versions?
