Sorry, I must smile a little bit... ;-)
Which ISP use a Mainboard with a Soundcard On-board in a Server?
No singel Mainboard I use in my "big" Servers has Sound On-Board.
Only some stupid Graphic-Cards with 64 and 128 MByte of memory. :-/
What about:
apt-get --purge remove libdiscover2 dhcp-client ipchains hotplug
ppp pppoe pppconfig pppoeconf +modconf
which should remove thos stuff loading tonns of modules.

And why do you install "hotplug" and "*discover*" first?
