Cool SoundCard with Mandriva 2008


I have a Dell Inspiron 1521 & I have done a dual boot & installed Mandriva 2008 64 bit. I'm having a problem installing the sound drivers. I believe I have found them , but I'm not sure of how & where to install them.
I'm using Kernal 2.6.22 19-2 I have a sigmaTell sound driver

My model # is PP22L

until you get a better reply can you advise is there onboard sound or a card pls?

what is the exact model number?

leaping ahead use root powers to

Code:
lsmod | grep sound
lsmod | grep snd
lsmod | grep ac97
Its possible if onboard you are needed the module for ac97 running...but you may already have soundcore running ?

if you can not see any snd or sound in the responses try command
modprobe ac97 and run lsmod above command again ?

good luck
