Not Loading Modules

["Thomas H. George" <georgeacct@spininternet.com>]

I compiled a 2.2.19 kernel with module support and sound modules for my 
sound card selected, ran make modules and make modules_install, then 
copied everything in /usr/src.../arch/i386/boot to /boot.  The kernel 
boots and all my regular programs run perfectly but dmseg contains 
nothing to indicate my sound card was detected  and /sbin/lsmod shows 
nothing loaded. 

less /proc/pci shows Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 (rev 2)

Any suggestions as to what is wrong?  I do not currently subscribe to 
the list but can check the archives with Geocrawler
