I just have an onboard crappy sis card.
00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS7012 PCI Audio Accelerator (rev a0)
Subsystem: Elitegroup Computer Systems: Unknown device 0a14
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
I/O ports at dc00 [size=256]
I/O ports at d800 [size=64]
Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2
I compiled mine from source, but you can get rpms as well. It was bit of a pain finding instructions of what I had to do, but other than that it was ok.
go to
http://www.alsa-project.org/
for the downloads, you will need the
alsa driver
alsa library
alsa utilities
to install correctly
then go to
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/
and select your card for instruction on installing.
one thing to note is that by default your volume is at zero so you will need to run alsamixer and put the volume up before using the sound drivers.
