Hi!
I had almost the exact problems whith my soundcard, and this is how I made it
work (have a different card though).
I compiled the following as modules: 'soundcore', 'sound', 'uart401' & 'sb'.
Then I added these lines to 'conf.modules':
'alias sound sb'
'options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=-1'
To make the modules autoload, kerneld must be running, which I believe you can
set in YaST. Otherwise 'modprobe sound' should work. Whith this setup, my
soundmodules are loaded everytime the kernel needs them (e.g. when playing
mp3:s and so on), and when not needed they are removed automatically (after a
short period of time).
Hope this helped.
(ps. before I got this to work, I had some stuff about PnP activated in BIOS
and this really messed things up, but thats a different story....)
