Hi,
I thought I had posted a query about my problems with this card and I was going to add to that thread but, since I cannot find it, I have added a new one.
I am posting this just in case it helps someone who encounters a similar situation with this or, indeed, other ISA cards.
I encountered this on a 10.3 system but there might be similar problem with the 11 series.
Having gone through the business of obtaining config info on this card via pnpdump and subsequently using Yast to configure and install it, I encountered a situation whereby the card was fully functional as far as the “Test Sound” option of Yast was concerned. However, after a reboot, it was not loaded and no sound was possible.
Debugging the “alsasound” script, I discovered that the directory /proc/asound was not in place at that time and, therefore, sound was not started.
The solution was to add the module name (snd_sbawe) to /etc/sysconfig/kernel to the parameter “MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT”.
Seems like Yast did not see a reason to do this itself.
Back to my CS4235 problems…
