You might try just rm -r'ing that 2.2.9 directory, then going back into
/usr/src/linux and doing a make modules_install. That should clean it
up. If not, post the exact error messages (or something closer than
"something to that effect") and we'll be of more help!

I don't think there's a way to turn off MIDI.

Sound->OSS sound modules, then turn on SB compatibles.

cat /proc/interrupts (and /proc/dma will show you used DMA channels,
/proc/ioports will show you used IO memory addresses)
