Great! googling in the web I found what was my error: I still had the Quick Boot enabled in the bios.
After disabling this I had to re-initialize the bios but now I can hear sounds!!
I still have a problem with mp3s:
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1057:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: Device or resource busy
but I hope to fix it up.

By the way, I've seen in dmesg these lines

first I  have to say to ALSA not to use the snd-cs46xx ...
but I'm a bit worried for the line

what does it mean? 0x220 and 0x388 are both used by the soundcard!

well, I just tried compiling every driver could be attached to this card in hope for hints for getting sound working

I have the 1.0.4

since I'm doing experiments I've left it: at least I have "ignoring isapnp=0..."

in slackware there's no kern.log, in messages there's nothing.
Since I resetted the bios I haven't had more panics... let's hope!

yes, I am.

in the alsa-driver-1.0.4 there is a script (utils/alsasound) to load-unload alsa drivers.
I've attached it.
