Hello, Guys! I know, I am late enough, but still, I hope I will help. The problem of unresolved symbols - is a bug in Linux Kernel Includes, when used with ALSA. When kernel is compiled with version, all system routines are redefined as #define routine routine_xxxxxx where xxxxxx is a weird sequence of characters, and represents the version. Edit the necessary headers manually, to comment those defines (or uncomment), then recompile ALSA. How to find the necessary file? Just go to MC, cd /usr/include, press ESC-?, then search for headers with contents of e.g. register\_sound\_dsp do not forget to put backslash before underline symbol.

I also have seen reference to a "soundcore" module in the various README, HOWTO, and FAQ documents associated with AlSA, but cannot find that module on my computer. How important is it?
This is part of the kernel and is needed for proper operation. You *have* to compile sound support as module. Nothing else of the kernel sound drivers is needed.
Alright. I compiled this as a module instead of directly into the kernel.
Do use alsaconfig, as it will create most if not all entries. When in doubt, read the documentation that rather clearly states what's needed/possible for a given card.
I uninstalled everything I manually installed from AlSA's home page, and used the SuSE packages. There are a couple more symbol errors after doing this, however: ### Loading driver: Starting sound driver: snd-card-sbawe /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: unresolved symbol unregister_sound_dsp /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_dsp /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: unresolved symbol unregister_sound_special /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: unresolved symbol register_sound_special /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o failed /lib/modules/2.2.13/misc/snd.o: insmod snd-card-sbawe failed alsactl: The soundcard 'CARD_1' was not found... alsactl: The soundcard 'CARD_1' was not found... Setting the PCM volume to 100% and the Master output volume to 50% The ALSA sound driver was not detected in this system. Could not initialize the mixer, the card was probably not detected correctly. ### Would this suggest that the PNP is not working correctly?
