Matt, My experience is that harddrake is hosed up and will not configure this popular chipset. The problem with sndconfig is that it hasn't been updated to work with the 2.4 kernel. So here's the scoop. Try editing /etc/modules.conf with a plain old text editor like kedit. Add the following line:
alias sound-slot-0 cs4232 Then reboot. This should enable your sound chip. The line for the OPL3 is: alias midi opl3 But so far I have not been able to get midi to work. I'm convinced there is a kernel problem with OPL3. I have'nt tried mpu-401 external midi. Adding: mpu-401 to /etc/modules with the text editor should get that started. The 2.4 kernel makes things easy, no more dealing with IRQs and I/Os and such. But there are still kernel bugs and config tool problems. Someone will likely suggest using ALSA rather than OSS with something like 'alias sound-slot-0 sound-card-cs4232' and 'alias midi sound-opl3'. That's fine. But don't expect OPL3 to work. My experience has been that It is hosed up under alsa also.
