Hi Matt- I have this same setup with Mandrake.
As has been said on other lists, you need to make sure that the driver is being loaded early in your boot cycle (with a modprobe in /etc/rc.d/rc.modules or as an entry in /etc/modules.conf...there are many ways to do this). The snd-hammerfall-mem modules will load along with snd-hdsp, properly allocating memory for the Hammerfall. You might also consider is an upgrade to Madrake 9, which includes ALSA as its default sound agent. The Mandrake installer actually found my HDSP by name and it just worked! Iit has since successfully configured ALSA on 3 other machines. So I am happy to help, etc, but you might consider the upgrade. I realize this sounds rather extreme just to get a souncard working.
