Re: [Sound] problems with via82cxxx_audio

[Kalevi Nyman <kan@xxxxxxxx>]

I have identical problem. No help from this list or 
elsewhere. RH7.3 does not have support for this combination 
of chipset/soudcard.

My solution was to install Mandrake-Linux 9.0. That worked 
right out of the box. (ALSA drivers).
