Under SuSE 9.0, I had <snip> Hmm, think about it: 'lspci' lists stuff connected to the _PCI_ bus, NOT the ISA bus. Try and list the loaded modules with '/sbin/lsmod', check for the correct module for you soundcard(see if it's there). If you can't find your sound-card's module, try manually loading it with /sbin/modprobe (Check ALSA docs to figure out the module name, probably something in the line of 'snd-cs4237b') Also, check that your mixer channels aren't muted.(ALSA drivers are muted per default when loaded). I've no clue why your card isn't auto-detected, but I assume ISA cards are somewhat more cumbersome when it comes to this.
