Laptops :: need Sound

Hello,

i have installed the new DSL 2.1 on my Laptop. (Looks fine)
i have no sound.

on my older version (DSL1.5) i have type in this:
#modprobe sb
#modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x370 mss_io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0
(see more: http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....ortege)

that doesnt works now.
when i start after this xmms (for a test) and run an mp3 my X hang on
what can i make to get sound?

thx

Have you tryed to install alsa? i have toshiba satellite pro 440cdt, sound started to work after i installed alsa, it works with wrong drivers but it works. And you have somekind of an Yamaha sound chip? I have.

yes i have a yamaha sound chip.
what is "alsa"?
(can i install it without network? - that the next prob)

It has many drivers for sound cards.
There is tutorials how to install it without network, i used network so iam bad helper.

upgrade to DSL 2.2rc1 and your old settings will work again, they reverted to the 2.4.26 kernel and all our jurassic ware is working fine again. btw did you get a boot complaint of 0x370 pnp in use? if so just add

isapnp=0 and i also noticed that it tried to find more than one card at the same i/o so i added the mulitiple=0 as well, now sound is working great with no complaints was working fine but with complaints before that
sudo modprobe opl3sa2 isapnp=0 multiple=0 io=0x370 mpu_io=0x330 mss_io=0x530 irq=11 dma=0 dma2=1
