4 Assuming you have the right kernel driver compiled and the module loaded
5 (search in the help pages of the Intel sound device drivers when you run make
6 menuconfig to make sure you have chosen the right one) then you should check:
7
8 a) dmesg for any errors when you boot up or load the respective module.
9 b) Run alsaconf as root which will unmute your card and configure sound.
10 c) Run alsamixer as plain user to set up the sound as you like it (after you
11 check that your user belongs to the audio group).
12 d) Read http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml and
13 http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/ALSA in case I have missed something
14 important.

16 Hope this helps.
