Make sure you kernel has alsa compiled as modules. You only need to select the generic alsa support in the kernel as everything else you can install from external alsa libraries. > I then tried replacing the existing kernel/sound directory with the > alsa-kernel directory, but on running make xconfig I got errors. Save you kernel's .config file in a safe place and then reinstall your kernel sources. You've probably screwed it up by overwriting the sound directory. You need a kernel source directory that matches your running kernel for the external alsa libs to build. Simply reinstalling the kernel source is not enough; you need to have built a kernel in that directory. If you still get errors at that point, post them.
