Here are the alias and option lines to add for the
IBM thinkpad 770/765/etc. line of laptops.

FOr a HD install, you can edit your /etc/modutils...

alias sound-slot-0 cs4232
alias synth0 opl3
options sound dmabuf=1
options opl3 io=0x388
options cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=5

From a live cd, I would also type into a terminal as root....

cd /lib/modules/2.4.22xfs/kernel//drivers/sound
insmod uart401
insmod cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=5

That usually works....

My bad....

Try this....

type "sudo su" <enter>
to get to root.

type "cd /lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound <enter>
( or type "mc" <enter> - and use up/down keys and enter to get to path )

then type "insmod uart401" <enter>

then type "insmod cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0 mpuio=0x330 mpuirq=5" <enter>

I think you can press "ctrl-alt-backspace" <enter>
to exit X server,
then type "startx" <enter>
to restart X server
right click to menu - go to "Desktop - Full Enhanced Desktop"
and left click..
You should see the wmixer on the bottom of your slit.
