In case this is news, I'm reporting a total failure of the snd-hdsp driver under the latest Fedora released kernel, 2.6.11-1.14_FC3spksmp, both with the x86_64 and i686 kernels. As a result, I've reverted to 2.6.10-1.770_FC3spksmp.i686. I'm using 1.0.9RC2 of alsa driver, lib, utils, and tools. Firmware is 1.0.8 -- all most current releases. It seems as if no symbol in the driver is recognized. Here's the output from attempting to start alsa, and the relevant lines in dmesg: service alsasound start Starting sound driver: snd-hdsp FATAL: Error inserting snd_pcm
