Thanks for your help!  I just fixed the problem myself.  I tried booting with
kernel-2.6.26-r4, and it worked fine.  So I edited my kernel .config file
(2.6.27-r7) and set:

[code]CONFIG_SND_SUPPORT_OLD_API=y[/code]

Recompiled my kernel, copied it to my boot directory, and rebooted, and now
WINE works fine. :-)  Apparently WINE still wants kernel support for the old
ALSA API?  Just in case you're still wondering, though, I'm using
alsa-lib-1.0.17a, and I'm using the relatively new xfi-drivers-1.00 for my
Sound Blaster X-Fi card.  Thank you again, and sorry for posting something that
I caused and should have just fixed myself.
