Thanks, Gerald!  You got a lot farther than I did.

Well, I tried the SuSE 9.0 specific RPM, it has a bunch of unresolved symbols 
and won't load.  Nice RPM unconfigures any working audio and networking in 
your /etc/conf.modules - but at least it saves the old file.

I'll try building the module from source tomorrow, I think it may be that I'm 
using the latest Athalon-optimized kernel.
