[Alsa-user] GUS classic card not detected

[Greg L. <gr...@li...>]

On Sun Nov 11 I got alsa-driver by anonymous cvs and tried it
with my GUS (classic).  My card isn't detected.  I compiled
first with debug=detect, then again with debug=full, but there
were no messages in /var/log/messages or anywhere.
"modprobe -v snd-card-gusclassic" reports that it loads up
all the dependencies (I fixed /etc/modules.conf) but that
insmod failed.

My kernel version is Linux 2.4.12.  The gus driver that comes
with the kernel finds my card and it works (but not in
stereo), using the same irq, io, and dma assignments that
I used for the Alsa driver.  depmod -a reported no errors.

I'm using devfs, and I set up devfsd.conf as suggested.
That part seems to work ok, since I can modprobe snd-pcm
and snd-pcm-oss and get /dev/snd and /dev/sound appearing,
and also /proc/asound/.

The alsa-driver compiled with no errors reported.  I configured
it with:
./configure --with-sequencer=yes --with-debug=full --with-isapnp=no \
	--with-cards=gusclassic,ad1848 --with-oss=yes

I'm sending this to the list, since the fancy SoundForge bug
tracking system would not accept my report.

Here's my modules.conf file:
