Unresolved symbols potato and kernel 2.0.36



<depressed_tired_of_pointless_hacking_mode>
I suppose it's the height of naivite to expect an answer about Debian around
here, but here goes...
</depressed_tired_of_pointless_hacking_mode>

Once again... I upgraded to Potato.  Yes, stupid, but I'm really really 
tired of waiting.

The upgrade thought it a great idea to remove my working alsa-modules
package and replace it with... NOTHING!  Poof, perfectly good sound is out
there, somewhere.

So I have tried to replace it... reinstalling, trying other kernel versions
(including this new-fangled kernel 2.2.x thing which is apparently the
greatest thing since sliced bread, but won't run on a computer with THREE
SERIAL PORTS!!!  Ever heard of a machine so unusual?  I mean a shared IRQ
that's like, IMPOSSIBLE isn't it??)

I tried recompiling my old drivers, 0.3.pre4 something, and could only do
that if I installed gcc272 as well, and actually got them compiled.

Now I come to the subject line.  I have over a screenful of 
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.0.36/misc/isapnp.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.0.36/misc/persist.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.0.36/misc/snd-ac97-codec.o

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.0.36/misc/snd-cs4236.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.0.36/misc/snd-detect.o

... and so on. 

How on the planet do I resolve them?  Yes, they're all the alsa modules, so
what?  How do I fix this?  I have a very limited time to hack and I don't
like spending 4 hours fixing something that was working fine.

Thanks for bearing with me in my misery, and please, give SOME indication
that someone is out there that has done this before???

There is no grief which time does not lessen and soften.
