the same procedure for 0.5.xx series works in most cases.

you may also need to enable oss support if you want most of the older
non alsa apps to work. please read the documentation within the alsa
tarball "INSTALL" using less or some such thing . or on the alsa
website the "alsa-HOWTO ".

the most important step which i guess Paul may be in a hurry
(oversight ;-(  )  forgot is
to run the 
./snddevices 

script which creates the alsa devices and as well creates the correct
link for the kernel to know where the sound drivers/devices are.

have fun but do take care
