No, if you used dkms, the drivers would be automagically created after installing newer kernels. > By the way, I am not sure > if it can be compiled, because the symbol of ALSA modules may have been > changed a lot in version=1.0.21 (I am now using Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04) > This is why using dkms is suggested. However, if the system freezes, you may have gotten kernel panics and thus the problem could be with the driver. Don't know how to advice.
