Not clear what you mean here.  You mean you can't find the right driver
in the list that alsaconf gives you?  Look at 0x33 (ESS_Maestro-1/2/2E
(ES1968/1978) chips).  The sorting that alsaconf does is horrible.

Or do you mean that alsaconf won't find the right module?  Make sure
that you have alsa-modules for the right kernel version installed.

red> sorry for my bad english ;)

Your English is mostly fine.  A few notes, though: "I have *a* "network"
laptop..." (only use "an" when the next word begins with a vowel.
Otherwise use "a".)  And in English, the names of languages (at least
human languages, though it's mostly true of computer languages too) are
always capitalized, so it's "English" and not "english".  The word "I"
is also always capitalized.

You have some other mistakes, but these are the easiest ones to
remember and to explain.  (e.g. "i must did" -> "I must have done" -- I
have no idea what kind of rule that would be.)
