alsa sound

[Alan Chandler <alan@chandlerfamily.org.uk>]

I have an sb-live sound card and I am having trouble getting sound to
work.

I have installed (from unstable) alsa-base, alsa-modules-2.2.18pre21
(and kernel-image-2.2.18pre21), alsa-utils, libsound1, but in order
for anything to work I seem to have had to manually add lines into
/etc/modules for soundcore and emu10k1.

When I start /etc/init.d/alsa 

I get loads of 

depmod:  *** unresolved symbols in
/lib/alsa-modules/2.2.18pre21/0.5/snd ...

and then

Staring ALSA sound driver (version none): do driver installed

It looks to me like there should be an alsa directory in /etc/modutils
with the appropriate alias lines in - but nothing got installed.

I tried re-moving and re-installing all packages, but that hasn't done
anything.

Where do I go next?

TIA


Alan
