Hi list,
By trying to compile a new alsa-driver-1.0.19 from source on a machine
with a generic Debian kernel 2.6.24 including ALSA driver 1.0.16, I
recently managed to trash ALSA on that machine.
I had been optimistic by just doing to usual configure/make/make install
without caring about the existing ALSA driver. This resulted in the
following error message when trying to load the snd_hdsp module aftrwards:

When you built ALSA did you set the prefix option, i.e. :
./configure --prefix=/usr
If not, you might have two ALSA installations on your system now, one in
the /usr hierarchy and one in /usr/local. Rebuild with the correct
option and reinstall, let us know if that works.
Best,
