I am getting an error when I insert the sound card modules.

snd_rawmidi: Unknown symbol ksize

As far as I can tell 2.6.18 has support for ksize so I am not sure

where

this error is coming from.

That kernel didn't export ksize.

Try --with-debug=memory to get a separate allocator implementation.

Indeed. The patch below (untested) forces to enable CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_MEMORY on older kernels. Let me know if this helps.

Seems to be worse now. Compiling with gcc-4.1 because that is the latest version of gcc we can get on this old system without having to go wholesale LFS on it. Upgrading alsa and jack is a big step for this machine. If this is in the too hard basket I'll compile a new kernel instead.

Now seeing the following errors from dmesg:
