Having used Gentoo for a few months, I decided to reformat my
"hot-backup" machine and start from scratch, enable IPV6, etc. The
kernel banners as "(Linux i686 2.6.11-gentoo-r6)" at the login prompt.
lspci does see my sound card...
0000:02:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Yamaha Corporation YMF-724F [DS-1
Audio Controller] (rev 03)
Subsystem: Yamaha Corporation DS-XG PCI Audio CODEC
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 5
Memory at ee800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 1
I believe I have an identical configuration what I had before, i.e.
all built as modules, but the alsa utils (alsaconf, alsamixer, etc)
simply can't find it. This chip has always "just worked" since back in
the days of Redhat 7.2, and an identical one is working on my main
machine. I don't even know where to start looking. /dev/sound/*
/dev/adsp and /dev/audio are the same as on my main machine.

An infinite number of monkeys pounding away on keyboards will
eventually produce a report showing that Windows is more secure,
and has a lower TCO, than linux.
