Re: [gentoo-laptop] IRQ conflict

[Raj Swaminathan]

Problem Solved. Thanks everybody for your help

I had wrongly thought of it as an IRQ conflict. I was using Kernel modules
and it did not work. So instead i disabled kernel support and installed
alsa-driver and now it works fine with alsaconf detecting my card.

Output of lsmod
