If we can find out what makes the difference between your and my installation... To run exactly the same driver: 1) install stock kernel for squeeze: linux-image-2.6.32-5-powerpc (2.6.32-31) 2) install my driver package: http://ristosu.wippiespace.com/pub/alsa-modules-2.6.32-5-powerpc_1.0.23+dfsg-2+2.6.32-31_powerpc.deb To 'refresh' your alsa driver, you could try to remove (or rename) /var/lib/alsa/asound.state.
