I downloaded and successfully compiled the dummy driver.  I also
installed the modules (apparently) correctly.  However, my soundcard-less
Redhat Linux 2.4 box still complains that there is no driver.  What am I
doing wrong?

Here's the scoop.  I followed the installation instructions as best I
could (the ALSA docs on the modules.conf requires a LOT of work -- it's
completely incomprehensible!)

My modules.conf is now as follows (cookbook copy-paste+subst from INSTALL
doc):

-----
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore

# ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-dummy
# OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

-----

No results are yielded with this.
I run the alsa-driver-0.5.12a/utils/insert utility as:

alsa-driver-0.5.12a/utils/insert dummy which (apparently) correctly loads
the modules (ie. lsmod shows all sorts of interesting modules being
loaded).

depmod -a has the modules.dep file being updated with all of the
dependencies (I assume -- I just ran the install script which ran
depmod -a which produced no errors).

Can anyone think of something that is not working?
