Yep got these. They do seem to be dated, in light of the 
recent kernel changes related to audio....?

Well, for now, I went back to this kernel version:
2.6.24-gentoo-r8

Only one audio chip (nvidia) shows up, and I got it working now

I'll try a 2.8 kernel when the gentoo  sources go stable.

I appreciate these steps and refs....

I'm good for now.
