I too have a SB32PNP, and found that I did not need to compile the driver
as a module, but could bung it straight into the kernel. I believe this
is because my BIOS is one of them fancy PnP supporting ones. It is a lot
easier than messing about with modules and isapnpconfig etc etc. It might
or might not work for you.
