Thanks for the info on cmpci and als4000. I went ahead and bouht a cmpci 
card. The card was detected fine enough , but now new problems have crept 
in. 
whenever i play in xmms or freeamp, the mp3 plays fine enough for some time 
but then the sound dies. i have to reconfigure the card after which it works 
fine. in freeamp, the sound also dies but when i pause and unpause the songs, 
it again starts playing again.
however , using the console based mpg123, the songs are played well enough, 
without any hindrance. what problem may be there. the same problem occures on 
a friends onboard cmpci card. 
the c-media website lists their own drivers for enabling 4 channel ouput and 
spdif support, can these solve the issue. else just a hunch, can buffer 
settings of xmms/freeamp make a difference.
And yes i am of mandrake7.2, kernel-2.2.17

Thanks

Rajil
