Hello Conrad,

I tried installing alsa-drivers-1.0.10rc3 but after I ran alsaconf - a lot of
the kernel modules could not be loaded because of "unknown symbol" errors.

I'm running Fedora Core 3.

I configured the package without any limitations - pure ./configure; make;
make install

After running alsaconf I get:
---------------------
Loading driver...

And in `dmesg` I have:

Have you met this case? I even uninstalled 1.0.10rc3 and moved back to
alsa-drivers 1.0.9 and it still had the same errors.

You can find the amixer output from my working ALSA 1.0.9 installation as an
attachment. Any ideas are appreciated.
