It compiles and then it tells me to run make install.

When i make install i get this

** The driver was succefully compiled, now install it with:
** make install
**
mkdir -p //lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1
install -c -m 664 emu10k1.o //lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/sound/emu10k1
install -c -m 664 ac97_codec.o //lib/modules/2.4.18-14/kernel/drivers/sound
/sbin/depmod -a 2.4.18-14
/sbin/modprobe -r emu10k1.o ac97_codec.o
ac97_codec.o: Device or resource busy
make: *** [install] Error 1

As for the Audigy 2 goes, I'd suggest you use the ALSA drivers. Although you will need to compile about 4 packages in order form them to work... properly (mixer settings, etc, etc).
alsa-project.org

You'll still need to build the module for emu10k1, but I think you can also build one for the emu10k2 chip that comes with the Audigy 2. Anyway there are references for the Audigy 2 in many ALSA related pages, look at the documentation page in the alsa's home page.

emu10k2 is the actual chipset of the Audigy2 soundcard, which is still compatible with the driver model for emu10k1, that is why the emu10k1 driver (whether OSS (kernel, Creative Labs Open Source project) or ALSA) are compatible with it. Although ALSA has much more features than OSS.

ALSA has an option when you are to compile the driver. Run the ./configure script with these flags*:

Code:
[xxx@yyy alsa-driver-0.9.4]# ./configure --with-cards=emu10k1
[xxx@yyy alsa-driver-0.9.4]# make && make install
This will compile the emu10k1 ALSA module, this module is compatible with the emu10k2 chip (the one found on Audigy 2), if and only if you use the latest ALSA 0.9.4. Remember to download the other programs too: alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-tools, and compile them the usual way, i.e:

Code:
xxx@yyy alsa-xxx-zzz]# ./configure && make && make install
*If you want to see all the options in the configure script run it with the flag --help (double dash).
