if you found it in one of the 4-in-1 CDs it's most probably for their 
sound card.. not display drivers... display drivers will have to come from 
XFree or someone will have to contribute for that... what is the exact 
model number of your motherboard.. do a google search with that model 
number and linux ... and you'll find the exact status of the cards 
support.

It's most probably source that needs to be compiled... I got my sound 
cards drivers on the via cd ... they were terribly outdated ... your 
distro or the latest kernel will have better drivers.
