What version of the kernel were you running? When I try to compile the
stuff I downloaded from the site referenced in the readme on the diskette,
I get a ton of linking errors. Here's the top of the output from the gcc

All that is in there, but even in sndconfig I get the modprobe error, or
rather it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
