Thanks for that hint.

A search on alsa-source has 0 matches. All I found was instructions
starting with downloading something from the ALSA-homepage.
So I started to read the README in the alsa-source package and followed
its instructions. Honestly I did not really understand what I did, but
somehow I found my way to a deb.-package. Here are the steps:
# apt-get install alsa-source
# apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.10-5-686
# apt-get install ncurses-dev
$ less /usr/share/doc/alsa-source/README.Debian
# dpkg-reconfigure alsa-source
-->choose azx as driver
# apt-get install fakeroot
# cd /usr/src
# tar jxf alsa-driver.tar.bz2
# cd linux-headers-2.6.10-5-686
# make-kpkg --rootcmd=fakeroot --append-to-version=-5-686 \ modules-image
# dpkg -i \ alsa-modules-2.6.10-5-686_1.0.8-4ubuntu4+10.00.Custom_i386.deb
I got no error-message - so it seems to install - but what now?! How can
I "activate" this module now?
TIA, Ingo.
