No idea...

[Brandon Lewis]

Hi, I have an Alpha XL 266, running a fairly current unstable release 
of debian. I recently tried to compile 2.6.5 stable. The machine has an 
ISA sound card, which has sticker on it which says it's a SoundBlaster 
AWE32 PnP, though the isapnp tools do not detect any boards at all. I 
enabled the PNP BIOS options and the damn thing errored out during 
compile.

all through the compile process I kept seeing shit like

LD      drivers/net/tulip/built-in.o

no idea what that's about, but I wouldn't have cared if some time later 
the thing hadn't errored out all together.

card at some point...
