i'm a little confused about this same sort of thing - though with any debian kernel. in dselect install/config it went through an alsa config that had a choice of using powermac sound out, but now while alsa is (supposedly?) installed, alsaconfig finds no modules, no cards. it's confusing for me because i can't go by the normal alsa instructions as the drivers and whatnot are not in /usr/src where they would be compiled into modules for the kernel. how does one go about makingn als work in debian? (and especially with dmasound?)

Hi,

I'm on a Pismo 500 laptop on unstable.
I cannot use sound, i have no module alsa.
grep ALSA /usr/src/benh_kernel/.config shows nothing.
I tried to load alsa-source but don't know how to compile it
with make-kpkg : modules target builds /usr/src/modules
and not /lib/modules...

Is sound not working linked to a bad kernel config ?
How do i compile alsa ? do i need to ?
