Thanks guys,

OK, for anyone who want's to know. After building kernel-2.6.0-test9 (with 
ALSA support and the driver for your card "I compiled my driver as a module") 
you can edit the /var/lib/lunar/moonbase/audio/alsa-lib/DEPENDS file and 
remove the alsa-driver line and (save the file) then do a "lin -r -c alsa-lib 
alsa-utils" and you should have aworking ALSA system. I am able to set my 
volume levels and store them with no problem with the "amixer set Master 90%" 
command and "alsactl store" commands.  :-)
