nvidia kernel + AMD processor = problems with sound & tv tuner

["Michael Bonert" <sparcc@gmx.net>]

I installed the nvidia kernel (details below) and after that and rebooting:

I got the nvidia splash screen (the driver seems to load), but...
the tv tuner card doesn't work, xine sound doesn't work and totem sound
doesn't work.  Interesting is that XMMS player sound does work.  Without the
nvidia stuff... the tv tuner, xine and totem all work (as does xmms).

-----

Is this an issue between k7 and i386?
Why is the nvidia driver screwing with the sound?
I used gcc 3.3.5 to compile the nvidia-kernel (the original kernel was
compiled with gcc 3.3.6) -- could this be causing all the trouble?

I found this about the k7 kernels...
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/11/msg00022.html 
and wonder whether there is a more general issue here.

make sure it is there -	Load "glx"
remove - 		Load "dri"
remove - 		Load "GLcore"
change -		'Driver "nv"' to 'Driver "nvidia"'

RESTART X -- appears to work...
reboot... more testing --> then above problems.
