You can either use the sndconfig from woody as explained by Clinton, or if
you wish to try and get it working manually - and learn a great deal more
about how it all works, have a hunt through /usr/src/linux/drivers/sound/

"grep -i crystal *" in that directory shows a whole bunch of drivers for
different crystal chipsets.

Also, /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help has the help info that
comes up when you press "?" on an item in menuconfig, and grepping through
that shows a lot of hits on "crystal" as well.

Look at the largest chip you can find on the card, and grep for the number
written on that chip, it should help you find the right driver.

Alternatively, if it's a PCI card, /proc/pci and/or lspci may be of
assitance in finding out what sort of card it really is.
