You mean, that you got working ALSA just from Debian/woody packages? Could you please elaborate a little bit on how did you do it? After fighting with the mess of incompatible packages (alsa-base 0.9+0beta12-3 v. alsa-source 0.5.12a-2), I gave up and stick with kernel modules (which fortunately works with my VIA AC97 chip on Compaq Presario 1200).
