the modules of your current kernel can be found at /lib/modules/KERNELVERSION/kernel/drivers/ then maybe in the subdirectory sound/ - KERNELVERSION will probably be 2.4.19-gentoo-r5 :)

take the one named after your chipset or soundcard (eg maestro3.o) and call
modprobe maestro3 without the .o in the end.

in case you run into "unresolved symbols" call depmod -a if this also gives errors you should better recompile the kernel and the modules
