Soundstorm

I just installed Arch 0.8 and cannot get my soundcard to work.
It's a Nforce2 Soundstorm Motherboard with 5.1 Speakers. Last time i tried i just had to download the nforce package with pacman but when i try to modprobe nvsound now, i get
"FATAL: Module nvsound not found."
I know that nvidia dropped support for their soundstorm but is there another posibility to get my 5.1 speakers to work without buying a new soundcard?
Thank you.

Re: Soundstorm

The package was probably built for an old kernel version. You'll need to rebuild it.
