OK, I popped the case.  There's no soundcard in the PCA slots so it must
be on the motherboard somewhere....  I don't have a clue where to
connect that CD cable.  My dealer said this machine used a newer
architecture but it can't be that new!  Are there any linux settings or
linux cd-playing software that get around this problem?
