Sound not holding up

[artooro]

Hi,

I just installed Debian unstable. The sound card (Crystal 4237B ) was not detected autmatically so I installed alsa-utils and ran alsaconf.
My kernel version in 2.6.12.

Now here's the problem. I configured the card using alsaconf which detected it as a legacy ISA card using the cs4236 alsa driver.
Everything worked, I recorded some audio, played some, everything was fine.... until.. I rebooted the system.
When I logged in a message said no sound devices were found.

So I logged back into a root terminal and ran alsaconf again. The card was detected and all went well until it tried to load the driver:

Loading driver...
FATAL: Error inserting snd_cs4236 (/lib/modules/2.6.12-1-686/kernel/sound/isa/cs4236x/snd-cs4236.ko): No such device

And when trying to run alsamixer:
function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory


This all seems strange to me.

try running

modprobe --ignore-install snd-cs4236 isapnp=0 index=0 port=0x530 cport=0x538 fm_port=0x388 irq=5 dma1=1 dma2=0

I sort of fixed the problem by adding snd-cs4236 in /etc/modules
