I went through yast2 to try to add the sound card and got the error message
An error occurred during the installation of
ENSONIQ SoundScape PnP driver
The kernal module error for sound support
could not be loaded. this can be caused by incorrect
module parameters. including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
An error has occurred.
If the the problem persists, try passing options to the ALSA module. If your sound card still will not work, try OSS/Free or another module.

I'm lost how do I pass the Proper parameters to alsa?
or do I need to build a new driver for the card?
This machine is dual boot w/ win98SE where the card works fine.
