I just went from redhat 7.1 to 8.0, and was going to install the 0.5.10b
drivers (because before the later drivers always played too fast), but
neither they nor any of the 0.5* would compile (thought the kernel was
version 0.0.0).  So I got 0.9.0rc3, and it compiled no problem.  I kept the
old modules.conf (which is:

alias eth0 3c59x
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias char-major-116 snd
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

alias usb-controller usb-uhci

alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

), and I could modprobe stuff just fine.  However, when I tried to use
alsamixer, I got this error:

ALSA lib conf.c:1564:(snd_config_load1) _toplevel_:6:8:Unexpected char
ALSA lib conf.c:2820:(snd_config_hook_load) /etc/asound.conf may be old or
corrupted: consider to remove or fix it
ALSA lib conf.c:2666:(snd_config_hooks_call) function snd_config_hook_load
returned error: Unknown error
ALSA lib conf.c:3066:(snd_config_update_r) hooks failed, removing
configuration

alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: Unknown error

And no dice, obviously.

I tried removing all the modules and doing it again with insmod instead of
modprobe and got a bunch of unresolved symbols.  Then I tried using the
freshrpms alsa rpms via apt, and the same problems occurred, both with
alsamixer and insmod.  Any clues?  The kernel is 2.4.18-14 plus whatever
patches redhat applies.
