assuming that the chip is isa (pci would be obvious, you can see lspci
what chip is)...
at first take a look whether isapnp is available.
"modprobe isa-pnp" and see what /proc/isapnp shows. if not exist,
then it's non-isapnp chip.
if it's a non-isapnp chip, the configuration is not so easy, since you
have to know exact parameters.
you might try alsaconf script below
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/tiwai/misc/alsaconf
this can probe the legacy isa chips if requested.
just run alsaconf as root.
obviously alsaconf script is only for alsa.
if you would like to configure the oss driver, i cannot advise more ;)
ciao,
Takashi
