Hi,
I can't seem to be able to get any sound out of my CentOS 3.8 laptop. I have the ESS ES1878 chip in it. It can work in either native mode, or in SoundBlaster compatible mode. Neither is detected by CentOS 3.8. I've looked at the directory with kernel drivers, and there doesn't seem to be any kernel module that smells like either ES1878 or SoundBlaster.

Hmmm... After a bit more Googling, it seems the problem might be that the onboard sound card is ISA. Is there an easy way to get isapnp kernel module for CentOS 3.8, other than recompiling the kernel (don't have compilers and stuff on the machine, the compilation would probably take about forever on that old laptop, and I doubt there's enough disk space to do it)?
