Your command up there is wrong (the local), after fixing the command it says: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Nov 23 23:21 /usr/include/alsa/asoundef.h -> ../sound/asoundef.h -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10439 Nov 23 23:18 /usr/include/sound/asoundef.h

And, by the way: I do not get the configure error you told me, I just get this ---snip make: *** No rule to make target `aoss.in', needed by `aoss'. Stop. ---unsnip when I type make. ./configure runs fine.
