Thanks Tuttle for helping me. I
I want to be independent of Microsoft product. I spent whole night to fix my dsl and finally able to use gaim. Now, the remaining is the sound. Please help me out.
I update my system via up2date and yum. I compiled and install, and it still doesn't work.
Motherboard: A7V8X-X SoundCard: ADI 1980
File I am trying to installed: ad1888_Linux.zip
I unziped.

WARNING!!! The mixer channels for the ALSA driver are muted by default!!!

You would use some ALSA or OSS mixer to set the appropriate volume.
////////////////////////////////How to unable muted? Is it that I still don't have sound after reboot?

Step 4.
I edit /etc/modules.conf to :

Step 5.
I reboot the system.
