Yep that's where the error came from. Since 2.6.20 support for core2/xeon was introduced (CONFIG_MCORE2) and enabling it made alsa configure script fail to identify correctly the cpu. By setting the processor type to i686 it compiled flawlessly.

Hi.
I recently compiled a new kernel, 2.6.20.3, but when I tried to build alsa 14rc3 it failed. I also had troubles with the ati fglrx driver (missing declarations in headers - solved) so it could maybe be related to the new 20.x kernels. I attached logs for both the "configure" and "make".
checking for processor type... unknown
This is the problem. Maybe you chose a new chipset or so that isn't listed in alsa-driver's configure script.
Attach your kernel config to check further.
thanks,
