Are you sure to have installed the full source tree of kernels? your
linux directory should be like this:
COPYING         Makefile        drivers/        kernel/         scripts/
CREDITS         README          fs/             lib/            vmlinux*
Documentation/  Rules.make      include/        mm/
MAINTAINERS     System.map      init/           modules/
Makefile        arch/           ipc/            net/   

(this is from a developement kernel, but 2.0.36 should be nearly the
same.)

or try rpm -qa | grep kernel
you should get something like this:
kernel-2.0.34-0.6
kernel-headers-2.0.34-0.6
kernel-pcmcia-cs-2.0.34-0.6
kernel-source-2.0.34-0.6     

(oh, your version is 2.0.36)

sndconfig relies on modules. Only with modules is possible to change
card parameters "on the fly".
