OK, it's there,

The wiki says:
| You must turn on the sound support soundcore module. This is in the
| kernel. Look in the sound drivers directory and it should be the first
| option. Most people enable the module setting. That way you can load
| and unload the module manually if you have multiple soundcards or if
| you intend to debug or use cutting edge software which may cause your
| drivers to halt sometimes. Of course it also means you have more
| control of your system.
Doing "/sbin/modprobe -n soundcore" comes up blank. The driver/sound
directory does contain a file named soundcore.o
What does it mean about "options" in a directory? Doing a "make xconfig"
I don't see an item for "soundcore", though the first option there is
for sound card support, and is indeed enabled. Is this related?
Does this imply that I do or don't have to rebuild the kernel, or am I
not seeing other critical information?
