Greetings Jani:

I guess this is an ISA card?  (minor confusion).  At any rate, I once had a 
non-pnp card that gave me a lot of problems, although it wasn't in a laptop.  
As it so happened, someone had just ported sndconfig to Debian's then testing 
version of Woody!  I installed it, ran it, and had it going in about 30 
seconds.  You may want to give it a go and see if it is able to detect your 
sound chip.  Also, there may be other advice forthcoming from the list, so do 
stay tuned :)

apt-get install sndconfig (as root)
