Intel Board d850gb (chipset ADI 1885) on SuSE 7.3

Ok, this is the story:

The standard configuration using YAST2 in SuSE7.3 (just after installation) didn't detected the sound card (or chipset in this case)

Finally, I used "alsaconf" in text mode, and it was detected as "Intel 82820 820 Camino2 AC97"

I used "gamix" in Xwindows to "unmute" the sound.

Sound is playing, BUT

1- Everything is "quicker" than it should. Every sound or song is played a little quicker than normal.....

2- I get the following messages:

Anyone has any idea? I think the messages from kernel are generated by "alias" and "sound" being all mixed up.. is this true?



Thank you all
