Problem loading sound modules

[Torak]

I am trying to use alsa to install my sound, I have installed all of the alsa packages, a lot of the time it said things like 'nothing to be done for directory blah blah' though but that may be because I have just reinstalled them in the hopes that may make a difference. Anyway, I tryed loading the module and it is not working, the problem seems to me to be that something has been installed from the alsa-libs but I don't know what to do about it, any help appreciated. Output from Konsole underneath.

bash-2.05a# modprobe snd-via82xx;modprobe snd-pcm-oss;modprobe snd-mixer-oss;mod probe snd-seq-oss

/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/pci/snd-via82xx.o: init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/pci/snd-via82xx.o: Hint: insmod errors can be c aused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

Did you recompile your kernel with via82 sound as modules? Are the via82 modules listed when you do the /sbin/lsmod command?

Did you look in the /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/pci directory for the files listed?

Okay, I reinstalled alsa completely and it went fine, then I ran alsaconf and it loaded the modules and adjusted the sound volumes so that they are at an audible level. But still the sound doesn't work. Also I still get the same error when trying to run alsamixer. Thanks.
