You might wish to try using Sounddrake, avaliable [like everyhting else]
through the DrakConf icon on you desktop, to set up your card. Its the
primary supported method of setting up sound on Mandrake, and generally
seems to much better than sndconfig [for my Vibra 128, anyway].
If that fails, then we will deial with the IRQ prob. BTW, you might wish
to set `Plug and Play OS' in your BIOS to `no' before you continue.
Linux is PnP, but works better with the info supplied by the BIOS
[unlike Windows, which gets confused :) ]
