I got alsa installed; I thought I had had ncurses5-dev installed prior to the
compile of the utils but when I removed the configure-cache everything
recompiled fine, so I must have been mistaken.
Now I have made an alsa file in /etc/modutils (because in debian you aren't
supposed to directly edit modules.conf), and I will show the file below.
However,  i still get
Unable to open /dev/audio: no such device
when I try to run sound.
Do I perhaps need to put irq, dma, io port, etc. in this file?
cat /proc/interrupts does shou the emuk1 at irq 11.
Thanks.
