OK, I have installed DeMuDi 1.3.0rc1, which has kernel 2.6.14, and alsa 
version 1.0.10.

I have also downloaded and installed alsa-firmware 1.0.10 (which placed 
a number of files in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware).

The VxPocket card is, however, still not detected.
/proc/asound/cards only lists the internal sound card and a modem. 
Inserting the vxpocket does not causes it to be listed (see below).
On the other hand, an Edirol UA-25 usb sound card is detected if I plug 
it in.

Is there anything I need to do that I have forgotten?
What would be the next logical thing to check?
