Alan, thanks for your answer
Let's start over,
Description of the problem:
No sound on a Dell Inspiron 8000 running RedHat 8.0 when upgrading to
kernel-2.4.18-17.8.0. The only custom drivers are the NVIDIA graphics,
necessary to run X on this system.
Performed tests and results:
Issued "play soundfile.wav": some chirping coming out of the speakers,
the command does not come to an end within reasonable time.
Rolled back system to kernel-2.4.18-14: Sound works perfectly well.
Installed ALSA drivers on kernel-2.4.18-17.8.0: No sound at all when
playing file.
New tests: rmmod maestro3
insmod maestro3 gpio_pin=1
result: on kernel-2.4.18-17.8.0 no sound at all, no chirping noise.
on kernel-2.4.18-14 receive the following message:
Using /lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/sound/maestro3.o
Warning: ignoring gpio_pin=1, no such parameter in this module
Module maestro3 loaded, with warnings
sound is OK in 18-14

When I run "play somefile.wav" kernel-2.4.18-17.8.0, some noise comes
out of the headphones (or speaker). The play command does not end
result of lsmod (on 2.4.18-14)
