alsa is easy enough if you have a supported card, and if you religiously
follow the instructions on the gentoo site, and the alsa-project.org
site. (start at the card matrix page and folow the link from there)
compile ONLY the soundcard support as a module in the kernel, NOT any of
the card drivers, or alsa will not run. soundcard.o is the only module
you need from the kernel. the other modules are supplied via alsa.
ltmodem. I think its emerge ltmodem.
sf linux # emerge -s ltmodem
