I'm running testing with kernel 2.4.6. I'm using an SB Live! with alsa 0.5 compiled from source. My snd-* modules are installed in /lib/modules/2.4.6/misc as well, and everything is working.

I followed the instructions in the INSTALL file for the alsa-driver source package and things seemed to work OK. One problem I stumbled on was to make sure that these aliases were present in /etc/modutils, alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore Use modprobe -c to check.
