The config file you are looking for is probably either in a file within
/etc/modutils or /etc/isapnp.conf. I can't remember offhand whether the
installer uses isapnp or not.
Incidentally, that output you posted looks like a "normal" Soundblaster
driver.
Theres actually a separate driver for AWE based cards. More details are in
the
SoundBlaster-AWE how to (or something like that), if you haven't come across
that
yet. Having said that, my own AWE64 card seems to not work when I use
the AWE driver, but fine under the "normal" one. It should only make a
difference if
you are using some of the more advanced features of your soundcard (like
wavetable
playback).
