Hi Giovanni,
thankx for you replay.
I using ubuntu lucid. The alsa-driver make a problem.
Alsa is compiled correcly from sources.
when i execute the following command:
root at freeswitch:/# modprobe  snd_dummy

i reboot the system, the problem is the same.

=====================

My answer:

have you followed strictly the guidelines in the wiki page for
compiling and loading the custom snd-dummy? (alsa and drivers are
tricky beasts)

can you paste here the results in dmesg (/var/log/messages) that are
related to that?

anyway, seems that you have one of this problems:
a) maybe you have not done "make" then (after make) "make install"
b) maybe you still have the old sound directory in your /var/lib/modules tree
c) maybe you have compiled and installed the alsa mods for a previous
kernel version

can you report exactly what you have done (and answer the previous questions) ?
