Get the latest ALSA drivers.

Install them as in the directions with the following exception:

Run make mrproper BEFORE running ./configure when building the drivers.

Modules.conf as installed on my system with ALSA 0.5.8b

alias char-major-116 snd

And I will give thanks to Thomas Hood, where I found most of the
configuration information for the CS4236 sound "card".


You can also use the OSS/Linux drivers, however they do cost $$$.
