no the standard nm256_audio module is not working in my configurations, The NM256 *NM2200* module didn't work: it load all right, but i had no audio capabilities. Through my searchs in the net it seems not suitable for various old laptop like Dell latitude, IBM thinkpad, Sony vaio...also if i try modprobe -a cs4232 i get the following : ---------------------------- [root@xxxx root]# modprobe -a cs4232 /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4232.o: init_module: No such deviceHint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4232.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4232.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/drivers/sound/cs4232.o: insmod cs4232 failed ----------------------------- Furthermore, i added this line to /etc/modules.conf : options cs4232 io=530 irq=5 dma=0 dma2=1 but i didn't get any improvment. So, after many fails with various standard modules i decided to switch to the alsa drivers...try to have a quick glance to the link i included in my first email, it describe better the situation. and what about that error message : /usr/src/linux-2.4/include/linux/malloc.h:4:2: #error linux/malloc.h is deprecated, use linux/slab.h instead. I get it many times when i compil various "old" program source code such as "alsa-driver-0.5.12". ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Cox" <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <sound-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 27, 2003 2:59 PM Subject: Re: nm256 AV, thinkpad 390 and RH 9.0 : cannot getsound...help ! > On Maw, 2003-05-27 at 13:41, Samy wrote: > > Neomagic 256 AV *NMA2* sound chipset.
