Sound card support
modulename: soundcore.ko
configname: CONFIG_SOUND
Linux Kernel Configuration

In linux kernel since version 2.6.12
If you have a sound card in your computer, i.e. if it can say more
than an occasional beep, say Y. Be sure to have all the information
about your sound card and its configuration down (I/O port,
interrupt and DMA channel), because you will be asked for it.
You want to read the Sound-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. General information about
the modular sound system is contained in the files
Documentation/sound/oss/Introduction. The file
Documentation/sound/oss/README.OSS contains some slightly
outdated but still useful information as well. Newer sound
driver documentation is found in Documentation/sound/alsa/*.
If you have a PnP sound card and you want to configure it at boot
time using the ISA PnP tools (read
<http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/>), then you need to
compile the sound card support as a module and load that module
after the PnP configuration is finished. To do this, choose M here
and read Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules; the module
will be called soundcore.
