HISTORICAL INFO:
moep,
Nice work tracking down some of the missing links. Like TycoonX, my 210 was not recognized at all by ALSA. I built HD_AUDIO-9.10, but ran into problems with loading the modules--missing symbols, the works.
I ended up cherry-picking from and modifying HD_AUDIO-9.10 and grafting it onto alsa-driver-1.0.22.1 downloaded from the ALSA ftp site. I went ahead and made the changes to the IDs you said to make a little more cleanly, so that the GT240 PCI ID wasn't lost and the GT210 is correctly identified as such in alsamixer.
UPDATED: Here's a patch that should cover the G210, GT220, and GT240. This has been tested on my system against the original sources for ALSA 1.0.22.1. Since it's built off of alsa-kmirror.git, the patch command is `patch -p1 -d sound < patchfile' from the alsa-driver root.
ORIGINAL TEXT:
Here's a patch. Apply with a `patch -p1 < patchfile' from the alsa-driver-1.0.22.1 directory. Hope this helps. N.B.: There may in fact be a much simpler patch, after reviewing some things. I'll get back to you after watching Important Things with Demetri Martin (with HDMI audio!), then I'll test.
EDIT 2: Nope, apparently got to stick with the original patch.
