Attempting to install the correct Dell OEM snd-emu10k1x driver this time as per http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Creative+Labs&card=Sound+Blaster+PCI+X+%28Dell+OEM%29.&chip=SB0200&module=emu10k1x,
I reach the point of inserting the modules into the kernel. When I attempt to run the command it returns errors. Please advise, should I ignore them and continue through the rest of the installation guide? Do something else?
Errors appended to bottom of email.

You are using the wrong driver. The Dell SBLive! is not a real SBLive!.

You want to use "snd-emu10k1x" not "snd-emu10k1".

Using Debian etch, and installing ALSA drivers later than v0.94 (fresh download of 1.0.11rc1) and on a system with udev; so did not run snddevices script.
