[Centos] Gateway M520 and Linux

My laptop (HP ZD7000 series) has a problem with kernel audio.  On my
machine, I believe there is a conflict between the network hardware and
the sound card which results in a locked-up computer.  After some
troubleshooting, I found that deleting the kernel sound modules causes
the problem to away.  Of course, so does the sound....  So, I payed a
few dollars and installed the sound driver from OpenSound
(http://www.opensound.com/).  That fixed the lockups and I now have
sound.  The one hassle with this fix is that I have to remember to
delete the kernel sound modules everytime I upgrade the kernel.  Failure
to do so results in a locked up computer.
