This is how i finally got my sound and video working on my Gateway Solo 2500

boot with cd:

>dsl vga=788
>xsetup.sh use the xfbdev xserver

You should also consider XF86 dsl package and the XF86Config dsl package, my full walkthrough on how i set up my gateway solo2500 with frugal can be found Here

To get your sound working do this:

F2 at boot to enter bios:
my working settings are:
io=260H-26FH
mss_io=320H-323H
irq=5
dma=0
dma2=1
joystick=enabled

add this to your bootlocal.sh:
sudo modprobe opl3sa2 isapnp=0 multiple=0 io=0x370 mpu_io=0x330 mss_io=0x530 irq=5 dma=0 dma2=1
