Mailing List Archive: Sound Blaster Live problem

I was having loads of problems getting my SB Live card up and running
until I moved toa 2.6 kernel.

My config that worked for me was to compile ALSA and emu10k1 support
into the 2.6 kernel, then emerge alsa-tools and follow the
instructions on the gentoo alsa howto doc:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml

And make sure that you don't have a Dell SB Live, cause they're not
emu10k1 chips - the notes on the ALSA project page have some links
that should help.
