Did you enable OSS emulation? Kernel 2.6.0 uses a different sound system, called
ALSA. It can emulate the old Linux system (OSS), but you might need to
specially enable that in the kernel. I know that OSS emulation is handled via
special modules, for you might merely need to insert those modules.
See http://alsa-project.org for more info.
