2.4.18 is the kernel version. the extra -14/18 just means that redhat
used different compile options and maybe a couple of patches. They
should work. But I'm surprised if RH doesn't include the alsa modules
with their default kernel. Can you boot with your sound module in
/etc/modules.conf disabled, then
modprobe snd
What do you have in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/sound/core?

Red Hat does not distribute ALSA drivers with their default kernel. You
must install the ALSA RPM's from freshrpms.net.
Wayne, why is it trouble to upgrade the kernel?
