trying to get creative audigy se working with kubuntu; total noob

[elijah_bravo]

not been working with kubuntu long and i dont really understand a lot of stuff so if you can help please act like your talking to a 4 year old just bought a creative labs audigy se cuz i think the onboard soundcard stopped working. it works great in XP but not in kubuntu.i disabled the onboard soundcard and i found the thread "Comprehensive Sound Problems Solution Guide" and followed it to step 6 of the alsa driver compilation. the module assistant fails and , looking at the log file, it looks good until the end where it says:
/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore/info.c:90: error: implicit ▒
│ declaration of function ‘PAGE_ALIGN’ ▒
│ make[5]: *** [/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore/info.o] Error 1 ▒
│ make[4]: *** [/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/acore] Error 2 ▒
│ make[3]: *** [_module_/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver] Error 2 ▒
│ make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.27-9-generic' ▒

│ make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver' ▒
│ make[1]: *** [build-stamp] Error 2 ▒
│ make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/modules/alsa-driver' ▮
│ make: *** [kdist_image] Error 2
i could post the entire log if needed. please help!! it is much appreciated!!!

p.s. when i used "lspci -v" in konsole my soundcard showed as a Creative Labs SB Audigy LS, but in the list on alsa's site it only shows a soundblaster ls, not audigy ls, plus the box of the soundcard i bought says soundblaster audigy se....dont know if that helps or anything...
