After I have upgraded to gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r5 (from gentoo-sources-2.6.10-r6) my sound stopped working. I have a Creative Live! card (snd-emu10k1). I'm attaching the output of "/etc/init.d/alsasound start" and "tail /var/log/messages".

I did some research of my own. That's what I need to do in order to start the alsasound service: 1) modprobe soundcore 2) insmod (not modprobe!) snd.ko. modprobe complains about "snd: Unknown parameter `device_mode'". 3) modprobe snd-emu10k1. 4) /etc/init.d/alsasound start.
Removed "options snd device_mode=0x066" from /etc/modules.d/alsa and it now works. Do I need this line?
yeah, just get rid of that line...
