If you build sound blaster suppoert as a module, all you need to
do is supply the configs as module parameters. I use the following
command (with kenel 2.2.12).

modeprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1

You'll have to modify that to use the configuration that your card
acttally uses. Also, if your card uses is 16 bit, it'll use two
dma channels and need slightly differnt options.
