I came into an Abit AX8 motherboard and single core AMD Athlon 64 FX. I
did a quick install of CentOS 5.0 on it to make sure everything worked
and then returned the hard disk and case to the original owner. After
getting a new case and hard disk, I downloaded the CentOS 5.1 cd images
and installed. For some reason the motherboard's on board sound no
longer works (worked with CentOS 5.0). dmesg gives me:

and I get the same result if I rmmod/modprobe the kernel sound module
(snd-via82xx).
lspci -vv gives me:

remove snd-via82xx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;
};
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-via82xx
I can always stick a spare sound card in the remaining PCI slot but the
sound card used to work with CentOS 5.0. It seems kind of silly that it
doesn't work now. I've Googled for some different parts of the dmesg
output but haven't found anything helpful. Same with error messages
from aplay, amixer, etc. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

I don't have a clue yet, but I thought if I posted my stuff, it might help. First, I think BIOS settings can affect the success/failure/stability of things. It might be worth experimenting there although you don't mention having changed anything. On my system, there seems to be a little "flakiness" re the sound. Sometimes just clicking the "Open Volume Control" and muting/unmuting a few things fixes it. This seems to be needed less with recent updates to the 4.x stuff (again, 32 bit). There is a kernel parameter that may have affect - see the end of this post. I wish that I could be more helpful, but I just use the stuff. :-(> For some reason the motherboard's on board sound no > longer works (worked with CentOS 5.0). dmesg gives me: > > ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [ALKC] enabled at IRQ 22 > ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:11.5[C] -> Link [ALKC] -> GSI 22 (level, > low) -> IRQ 90 > PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:11.5 to 64 > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] > codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] > codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] > AC'97 0 access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer. > ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:11.5 disabled > VIA 82xx Audio: probe of 0000:00:11.5 failed with error -5================================via82xx: Assuming DXS channels with 48k fixed sample rate.

Weird that it causes the driver module not to load. The original owner suggested that might be the problem so, after trying a CentOS 5.0 kernel and building and trying a 2.6.24.4 kernel I decided to crack the case. I pulled the cable for the case's front audio and mic off the motherboard and tried with that configuration. The good news was I no longer got the error documented in my earlier e-mail but still no sound. The case's front panel audio had two different connectors so I decided to try the other one and suddenly I had sound. No idea what the difference is between the two connectors. What's really strange is both front audio connection jacks are keyed correctly for the front panel audio out on the motherboard. It's just one works and the other doesn't.
