OSS should be supported- i have an SB64
on an i586 and these are my steps.  Hope
this helps.

 1) install oss through yast or rpm.
 2) build a kernel without  sound card support.
 3) open xterm or root while in root...type:
    cd /tmp/osslinux-3.7.1z 
 4) press enter and type:
    ./osslinux.runme
 5) press enter and type:
    soundon
