Sound Cards

[nuevoenlinux]

Hi. I just downloaded the latest drivers for my sound card but I have no idea what do do next. I'm using mandrake 7. As far as I know I have to insert this kernel modules in the kernel but how do I do that??

Was there no installation instructions whatsoever where you downloaded the drivers?
Did the files come with a README or INSTALL text file, after you unpacked them?

Ok, I already unpack the files and it said this:
3. Edit the Makefile to suit your system (SMP, CPU type, etc)

4. Type the following install commands:

If you have an 8830-based (Vortex 2) card:
make install

If you have an 8820-based (Vortex 1) card:
make install20

If you have an 8810-based (Vortex Advantage) card:
make install10

There is no need to reboot.

Note: if you get "unresolved symbol" errors during the install,
rebuild your kernel with sound support (soundcore) built in
(not a module).

Now, I saw the makefile but how do I edit it?
