Nope
SoundMax is a special cusstom Intel soundchip set.
Some of the older SoundMax sets work correctly out of the box.
However, if you have one of the newer ICH5 motherboards based on the Intel 865/875P chipset then you will need ALSA to listen to sounds.
My computer (Dell 400SC, Pentium 4 2.8HGZ with 800MHz FSB) requires alsa in order to work.
Hopefully, I can create an ALSA extension that will work with DSL.
In the meantime, you should be able to use a distro with alsa like knoppix 3.4 or Feather Linux 0.5.7 Just make sure to add "alsa" to the boot command line
