Looks like you're trying to use a plain kernel sound module as ALSA module. They're not compatible, even if the module names are similar. ALSA sound modules were not integrated in the kernel package on Suse 8.0 but needs to be updated separately. I don't remember the package name for ALSA kernel modules since I stopped using ALSA after my first kernel update :-)
I can not verify this. The original rpm of the default kernel that shipped with the 8.0 installation CDs (k_deflt-2.4.18-58.i386.rpm) _does_ contain the soundcard module "snd-intel8x0.o" and installs it into the directory /lib/modules/2.4.18-4GB/kernel/sound/pci However, the kernel rpm released last week (k_deflt-2.4.18-281.i386.rpm) doesn't contain this module anymore. Instead, I found the file "snd-card-intel8x0.o" in the directory /lib/modules/2.4.18-4GB/misc which has not been there in release 58. I have no idea if these two files have something to do with each other. I just want to get my soundcard working again :-)
