Hi guys, thanks to help from Fedor Pikus and Boris Goldowsky, I was able
to build ALSA successfully and it works.  I currently am stymied by 2
other small issues though.  I have searched the documentation on the
www.alsa-project.org site, but havent come up with a solution.  My ALSA
modules arent loading automatically. I have attached my modules.conf to
the bottom.  I cut and pasted the examples from the section on the
snd-via82xx driver as instructed, but its not loading automatically. 
One thing I dont understand is the last 2 lines in my example. I couldnt
find any mention of them on the documentation, are they for OSS and not
ALSA? Or are they just wrong for ALSA? Also, does their placement
matter?  What do they do? Also, after I reboot and modprobe snd-via82xx
I get sound, but first I have to go into the "volume control" applet in
Gnome and adjust some of the volumes up, they all default to 0. Anyway
to have the sound system remember your settings across reboots, or at
least default to a certain value that is audible? 

I know thats a lot of questions, thanks a ton for your help so far.
