Or even better, I should really learn how to build this RPM. Can we work
together to go through that? I have all of Saturday morning open.

I looked up your instructions in the archive. They are attached below.
However, when Steve tried this it didn't work for him. I'll try to follow
through this on a machine here in the office today and see where I run into
problems.

Please let me know if you think this list was not correct.

Thanks!

Yep, it is pretty much the same...
  http://www-ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/recompilealsa.html
That is for rebuilding the rpms without changing them in any way (for
example, you want to run the same alsa on top of a different kernel, or
you have rebuilt the kernel).

If you want to change things...
* if what you want to change in already in cvs it's easy:

- install the source rpms for the alsa driver, library, utils and tools
- build a new tarball for the current cvs
  cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/
  ./alsa-get-cvs
  [answer the prompt]
- check what is the date of the cvs access which names the tarball
  ls -lt | head
  the file at the top of the listing would be something like:
  alsa-xxxxxxxx.yyyyyy.tar.bz2 where xxxxxxxx.yyyyyy is the date and
  time of the cvs snapshot.
- edit all four spec files (alsa-driver, alsa-lib, alsa-utils,
  alsa-tools) that live in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS, copy them to new files
  that have a different version number, change the version number and
  the cvs_date variable to match the new cvs date, rebuild and reinstall
  as outlined in the web.
