It's considered more polite to ask for CCs to you, instead of [implicitly]
asking for replies to go only to you. Since the question is on topic for
the list and everything, copies should be sent to the list so that they
end up in the archives (for those with similar problems).

Check for /boot/config-x.y.zz, where x.y.zz is the version number of your
kernel.
Note that this only works with kernels installed from a deb, either off
the mirrors or compiled with make-kpkg, or if the person who installed the
kernel did this because it's a Good Idea.
You may have problems adding sound support, since that's one of the areas
of the kernel that depends most heavily on the type of hardware you
have...
