Regarding the sound device....
I have had the same issue with old laptops.
I successfully used snd-config with both RedHat and Mandrake to detect isa cards. (You may need to install snd-config)
sndconfig wasn't installed, so I did, then ran it, chose a SB Pro, and smiled as the grainy sample crackled from the speakers. I had a play with type of card, and have settled on SB16, which does a nice job of Ogg playback via XMMS...
Thx for the advice...
Kind regards,
Chris Wilkinson, Christchurch.
