  Sndconfig is an old program to set up the OSS sound system. IIRC

 already

  in Mandrake 9.1 Mandrake didn't set up sound for ISA cards during
  install (because things can go wrong). But you have sound working

 after

  sndconfig set everything up? If aumix won't start from the menu you

 can

  try starting it from a terminal to get error messages.
