I've tried something close to this, and also various modules.conf entries
that people on this group have posted that supposedly work for the cs4232
under ALSA. No success so far.

I imagine devfs, since I think that's what's standard for 2.6.x. I'll check
the configs there.

No such module.

I'm using the stock kernel that installed with FC2, so I don't know. I may
have to build a custom kernel . . . haven't done that for a few years <g>.


Meanwhile I got some info from http://alsa.opensrc.org. Hopefully, that'll
help.
