[NTLUG:Discuss] Sound - VIA8233

[Jack Snodgrass]

Not specific to this chip.... but you might have
better results with
modprobe via82cxxx_audio
instead of insmod. modprobe will load additional things
as needed. Might get rid of your "unresolved symbol"
messages.

the 'alsa' thing that the guy mentioned is not installed
with Redhat. You have to install several alsa packages
before you can start to get that to work.
