I suspect that your old laptop may have a SoundBlaster or a SB clone. That
would require sndconfig to locate and configure the card. It is no longer
installed by default, but it is on the installation disks. As root:
#urpmi sndconfig
After the necessary depends and sndconfig installs, as root:
#sndconfig
If you are lucky, it will find your card, and you will hear the sound sample.
