Well, that certainly explains a lot. I tried several drivers, and none of them work. Furthermore, the system would answer a "/dev/sndstat" with "No Devices Installed." That script mentioned earlier crashed my xterminal into oblivion. It wasn't pretty.
Anyway, I have the package install of the OSS port running as I write this. Hopefully after a reboot it will work OK. Or at the very least I'll be able to detect the card. I really don't want to go looking for a replacement sound card... though I will if I must.
