Suse's kernels are the tarball in an rpm. If you haven't got sound, let's
deal with that, and find out why. I'll guess from here: The SuSe kernel will
have the modules for EVERY soundcard compiled in, and yours probably hasn't.
Wrong module??? Ok then, Prove it! :-)
It took me several tries to get this right myself, and one system never works
the way it should. SuSe is also very fond of farting about with modules.conf.
