ok..... i'm trying this... same steps as last night:

make sure alsa-data, libalsa2 and libalsa2-devel rpms are installed

cd /usr/src/alsa-driver
make uninstall
make clean

removed all modules from /lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/kernel/sound

./configure --with-cards=usb-audio,cs4232,cs4231,cs4236,cs46xx
(others are internal sound for thinkpad 600E which i havent got working
yet but i build them anyhow!)

make

make produces a lot of this stuff... anyone know what it is?

/lib/modules/2.4.19-16mdk/build/include/linux/modules/timer.ver:10:1:
