Laptops :: Panasonic CF-25 Runs awesome no sound! Any Ideas?

I installed Beatrix on my Panasonic CF-25 Ran real slow. So I came over and got me DSL 2.0 Runs awesome! But I have no sound. Anyone got sound on the CF-25? Or maybe a how to get sound working?

Panasonic CF-25
P166
96 megs ram
Linksys wpc11 v2 wireless card worked outa the box!
1 meg magicraph neomagic 2093( I have the config-4 if anyone needs)
sound unknown not working bios has option for SB compatable. I believe windows sets up as a opl sax

Supposedly, the CF-25 has an ESS1788 chipset, so maybe this will work:

woh! Tried that got the new sound controls on my desktop with no errors from the terminal. but then loaded up XMMS and bam! Nothin but trouble........ Locked up the laptop

when I rebooted had to totally redo X which is ok. looked back in the modprobe lines I entered they were ok. tried it again and locked up again. when I rebooted my desktop icons were jacked up. so here I am now with a nice OS just no sound. Probably should just leave it that way I guess. I have not been succesful at getting sound on this laptop with any distro of linux yet
