In addition to this, you will probably want to get the awe driver. The
non-commercial version is beta at this point, but it at least compiled for
me. Trouble is, most (all?) awe cards are PnP, and you can't compile this
driver in as a module yet, so you have to use initrd. I havn't figured
out how to do this yet, but it looks like it should work.
