high!

I tried to apply this patch to clean 2.4.1 and to 2.4.1-ac20, which has
the same via82cxxx_audio.c as 2.4.2

in both cases the patch rejected HUNKS 4 and 6 (4 is a comment anyway)
HUNK 6 I didn't find by hand also...

This didn't help on my Problem...

Here is my Problem:

The sound is playing (much) too fast.
sometimes using xmms1.2.4 locks up the whole machine.

Here is my Configuration:
Biostar M6VCG motherboard with on-board ac97
via82cxxx_audio recognizes the chip as follows:
 kernel: Via 686a audio driver 1.1.14a
 kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 00:07.5
 kernel: PCI: The same IRQ used for device 00:0a.0
 kernel: ac97_codec: AC97 Audio codec, id: 0x8384:0x7609 (SigmaTel STAC9721/23)
 kernel: via82cxxx: board #1 at 0xAC00, IRQ 10
 kernel: via82cxxx: Codec rate locked at 48Khz

here a part of /proc/pci (the both devices using irq10):

PCI devices found:
  Bus  0, device   7, function  5:
    Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC97 Audio Controller (rev 32).
      IRQ 10.
      I/O at 0xac00 [0xacff].
      I/O at 0xb000 [0xb003].
      I/O at 0xb400 [0xb403].
  Bus  0, device  10, function  0:
    Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 8).
      IRQ 10.
      Master Capable.  Latency=32.  Min Gnt=8.Max Lat=56.
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xdb100000 [0xdb100fff].
      I/O at 0xc000 [0xc03f].
      Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xdb000000 [0xdb0fffff].

If you need mode information, I can send it on request.

Thanks in advance
