What tells
# cat /proc/asound/version
?
Patching the debian alsa-driver sources is not needed as we use
native alsa-lib, though. I assume that your driver version doesn't
match the the patch, because your kernel is much to old. You hve
either to compile the 1.0.20 drivers fom alsa-source Debian package
or install 2.6.30, which resides in sid repo.
