If you have a SB16 PnP card, ignore the suggestions to say 'yes' to the
SB16 options. You'll have to build them as modules. You'll then need to
use isapnptools to set up the io, irq, and dma addresses, and then pass
those options on to the modules when you insert them. You can check the
Debian mailing list archives for many discussions of this topic.

If your card isn't PnP, then feel free to say 'yes'.

SuSE isn't Debian. You might be able to get more specific help from a SuSE
mailing list.
