Ctrl+Alt+backspace is the combination for killing the X server (leaving
graphics mode when it does not work).

What are the options in particular that you don't know? Be a little more
precise.
You should read http://www.xfree86.org/3.3.6/
or http://www.xfree86.org/4.0.2 or whatever version you have.
I have this card here and it does not work with 24 bits color depth. Use
16 bit instead.

The kernel module ymfpci proably works for this sound card.
A good way to get information is reading mailing list archives. You can
search this list's archive at http://lists.debian.org/search.html
Although I must say I often have problems with that search engine.
Sometimes it does not return results on words that are in the archives.
