sound card support is most likely built in<br />
the kernel as a loadable module.<br />
if so, you can tell the module loader where to <br />
look for the device: io_base, irq, etc.<br />
so, in your case, I'd put the following two<br />
lines in /etc/conf.modules, if they are not there yet:<br />
alias sound sb<br />
options sb irq=9

I installed Corel Linux Standard and my soundcard is not recognized at all. It is a Soundblaster PCI512. I tried pnpdump&gt;pnp.file and the only card it recognized was my Zoom ISA modem. <br />
<br />
During boot up the BIOS identifies it on IRQ 9 (if that helps). <br />
<br />
Can anyone help me out?<br />
<br />
Thanks.
