For example, the howto for my card would be: - Go into the BIOS, get the IO and IRQ settings of the sound card. Enter those IO and IRQ settings in the modules.conf alias file together with -isapnp=no. Then it will work. I did not know before I started that if the alsa-driver modules are compiled with isapnp switched on. You cannot use non-plug and play sound cards, without specifically telling the modules.conf alias line that it is a non-pnp device.
