Intel 82801DB AC'97 Audio Controler Issue

[Asmir Murselovic]

Answer to Rick Stevense's question:
I have post to couple forums' (linuxquestion.org,
FedoraForum.org) but no answer yet. I'll post it on
fedora-list too, thanks for the suggestion.


Now, I've installed the alsa newest driver which was
recommended by ALSA's website. I installed it in
/usr/include/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.5rc1  directory, as
instructed by Alsa. When i rebooted Alsa-mixer
wouldn't work at all. When I try to open "Volume
Control" I get an error "Sorry, no mixer elements
and/or devices found." If I try to start it from the
terminal I get an error "alsamixer: function
snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device or
address
".
What do I need to do? Do I need to install alsa mixer
again, and if so, could you please, post a direct link
to the alsa mixer package to download.
Thank you very much
