I have partially solved the  problem. Actually, there were an incorrect 
symbolic link for the kernel image and my last modifications concerning the 
alsa stuff were not taken into accouns. 

Now the ALSA modules load perfectlyt but it seems that the acces to the ac 
codec is bugged.
/etc/init.d/alsa/restart says 
AC'97 0:0 doens not respond - RESET

As far as I have seen in the kernel mailing lists this seems quite a common 
problem and I don't know how to solve it. Do you think that the mm3 patch may 
help (it has an update to ALSA 1.0.1)
