[PD] problems getting ALSA to work under 2.4.16

[Ben Bogart - FMPM/F1999]

Hello PD people, I tried sending this to the ALSA mailinglist but have 
gotten no reply. Does anyone have any pointers on why I can get ALSA by 
itself working? 

otherwise I guess i'll have to try OSS/free...

Thanks a bunch.



Hello all, I'm running ALSA 0.9.0B7 with a 2.4.16 kernel

lib, util and driver all compile fine I then insert the snd-card-ens1371 
module into my kernel for my SB PCI 128.

When I try and run aplay I get this error:

ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:580:(snd_pcm_hw_open) SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PVERSION failed: 
Inappropriate ioctl for device
aplay: main:429: audio open error: Inappropriate ioctl for device

I was sure to run the ./snddevices script.

lsmod output:

Module                  Size  Used by    Tainted: P  
snd-card-ens1371        9704   0  (unused)

snd-seq-device snd-pcm snd-timer snd-ac97-codec]

gcc 2.95.3
make 3.79.1
2.4.16 kernel with base sound support.

Any suggestions would be appriciated.
anyone running ALSA without OSS emulation in 2.4.16? 


Thanks
Ben
