I'd like to try the stock ones to use a card from Trident (it's Trident 4DX something) and the only kernel releases that come with drivers for it are those from the 2.3 series... :-( I wouldn't like to use these 2.3 kernels but as I understand I can't use the Debian ALSA packages/modules if I compile my own kernel (can I)? BTW, what are people's opinions on this card? I've tried using it with 2.3.99-pre9 and its sound was terrible: *VERY* low and if I raised it a little bit, the sound was totally distorted, with the effect similar to clipping of samples. Is the sound level of this card that low and do I need an amplifier? I don't have the manuals of the card (only the card). :-( Anyway, I thought that that was very strange and was hoping that the ALSA drivers could be better.

No, you can use the debian packages with kernel 2.2.xx, but you should take the ones from woody. You may need to compile them from the source (with dpkg-buildpackage). As for the modules, you just install the deb package alsa-source and when you have built and installed a kernel on your own (with make-kpkg) you just run make-kpkg modules_image to compile the matching alsa-modules.
