OK, I've put in the fixes that Fernando suggested to my
/etc/modules.conf
Restarting ALSA, I got:
[root@gimel midisport-firmware]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound start
Starting sound driver snd-usb-audio [ OK ]
Starting sound driver snd-cs4236 \
/lib/modules/2.4.19-1.ll/kernel/drivers/sound/isa/cs423x/snd-cs4236.o:
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
init_module: No such device

I then started jackd with the arguments that its docs suggested, and got
the following:
[root@gimel midisport-firmware]# jackd -d alsa -d hw:0

this is or what to do about it.
I *think* I'm getting steadily closer :-)
