So, I've gone a made pgp key-set for root and am compiling it again...
it's asking for a passphrase...
and it's processed ok!  Now to configure it
I tried the alsaconf program and it's kind of hosed.
I think in the installation I created a file set /etc/alsa/modules/1.0
alsaconf created something in 0.5...
And that didn't work...

So I did: /etc/init.d/alsa stop and manually removed the module cs46xx.
than I did: /etc/init.d/alsa start
no errors at the command line
no erros in syslog, messages, or debug.
no modules loaded for alsa...

tried removing the /etc/alsa files and reinstalling the package -- nothing
