I've got an FC3 rc1 box here. If I use the stock kernel that it came with, sound works fine using the intel i8x0 chipset (ALSA drivers). But when I boot into my own custom compiled kernel, all audio apps work as they should (XMMS' graphic "scope" displays audio playback, esd gets launched when logging into GNOME, ogg123 will act as if it's playing back audio, etc...) but I don't hear anything. I've verified that the correct modules are loaded:
I've also tried the following based on Google searches:
1. Booting with 'acpi=off' per a suggestion from Alan Cox on a RedHat forum
2. Verifying that the OSS mixer is set correctly using 'aumix' from a prompt
3. Changing both the ALSA and OSS mixer settings in GNOME with the mixer applet
The only thing I haven't tried yet (and probably will this morning) is actually installing the ALSA drivers separately from the latest ALSA sources. Has anyone else seen this same kind of issue? Oddly enough, everything works just fine with the stock kernel, so I'm pretty certain it's not mixer settings.
UPDATE: I just tried the latest ALSA drivers (1.0.9b) to no avail. Same exact problem. II'm going to try another kernel since 2.6.11.9 is a bit behind current versions.

Reason: Spoonerism on the kernel version and an update
OK. Sorted. It wasn't the kernel version but the ALSA utilities. For some reason, the version of ALSA utils didn't match up with newer ALSA versions as far as what mixer elements are available. There is an extra element called "Internal Amp" that was muted. The older version of 'alsasmixer' couldn't control this as it didn't even display. When I upgraded my alsa-utils with the latest version from source, 'alsamixer' had access to this additional element and I was able to unmute my sound.

Hi All,
Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff.
Cheers,
