The Audio and Synth devices should not be a problem, because thats the way
my es1371 looks too.  So do not worry about those.

Now the system timer might be a different story.  Mine says

Timers: 
7: system timer

But I have a hard time believing that your system would run without a
system timer, I think they are a mandatory part of the PC architecture....

I'm not sure what to tell you, you might want to double check your kernel
config and see if there is a timer option that might be disabled. I did
not see anything like that in mine though.  Maybe you are missing a header
file too. Do you have these?

brew:/usr/include> find . -name "*time*" -print
./protocols/timed.h
./sys/time.h
./sys/timeb.h
./sys/timex.h
./sys/times.h
./sys/vtimes.h
./g++/ctime
./time.h
./timebits.h
./utime.h
./octave-2.0.13/systime.h
./linux.old/time.h
./linux.old/timer.h
./linux.old/times.h
./linux.old/timex.h
./linux.old/utime.h

and 

brew:/usr/src/linux/include> find . -name "*time*" -print
./linux/timer.h
./linux/time.h
./linux/times.h
./linux/utime.h
./linux/timex.h
./asm-sparc/timer.h

I doubt you would need the ones in the linux.old directory, since I think
those were for an older version of libc or something. Double check your
include path when you compile too.

Hope that helps, and I hope I do not lead you in the wrong direction.  I
really don't know the answer.

Also, does your /proc/asound directory exist?  If it does, maybe
everything is OK.  Try cat /proc/asound/cardX/audiopci and cardX/ac97, see
if there is anything there.

Good Luck!
