Takashi,
I'm pretty sure I've exhausted all the ways of building the soundcard module now, bar going through the build scripts myself to track the problem down. I've tried the snapshot but still get the same error message. The emu10k1 is listed in the configure options, and I have not typed it incorrectly. I cannot say the alsa-kernel directory is 'set up correctly' because I do not know what constitutes being 'set up correctly', however the symlink in alsa-driver does point to the correct path. All I have done with alsa-kernel is clone it with hg. The configure script confirms it is able to find the kernel headers.
Matt.

Not really. The unmatched kernel or gcc ends with different messages.
The unsupported soundcard is either you passed a wrong configure
option (often typo), or alsa-kernel directory isn't set up correctly.
When you run ./configure --help, you'll see what cards are really
available. If too little appear, check whether alsa-kernel symlink
from alsa-driver directory really points the correct path.
One often forgets to download _both_ alsa-kernel and alsa-driver
directory.
BTW, for such novice users without knowlege of mercurial and
auto-tools, I've already set up daily snapshot tarballs that are ready
to run configure directly in the below. Give it a try.
