  I recently installed Leap 15.3 on my computers "hp" and "se".

  Configuring the sound cards by yast worked on "se" only,   whereas on "hp" the following error message appears:   =================================================================           An error occurred during the installation of

                   GP107GL High Definition Audio Controller

          The kernel module snd-hda-intel for sound support           could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect           module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.   ==================================================================   The same for the other sound card, called "Cannon Lake PCH cAVS".

  How can I correct the kernel module snd-hda-intel and provide   the correct module, IO, or IRQ parameters?

These will help you.

https://github.com/spotify/linux/blob/master/Documentation/sound/alsa/ALSA-C...

https://github.com/spotify/linux/blob/master/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Aud...

  The first of these two sites contains a section entitled "Module   snd-hda-intel". However, it tells me neither where to find this   module, nor how to include it in the kernel. Do you have an idea?

Thank you for your reply, Masaru.

snd-hda-intel is a kernel module which is this: /lib/modules/[kernel-version]-default/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko

On my computer it is /lib/modules/5.3.18-59.5-default/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko.xz which has to be unpacked by "unxz". This file is the same than that on my computer "se", where setting up the sound cards has been possible.

To get the sound card's information, execute:

    $ /usr/sbin/alsa-info.sh --with-devices

This produces the file 'alsa-info.txt.XXXXX' on /tmp folder. In it, you can get the information for setting up.

It contains a lot of information, but no hint how to set up my sound cards. Please have a look on the file attached below. Best regards, Wolfgang
