Compile a 2.4.19 kernel of your own. I had to do it bacause of a new
motherboard, was scared, but can recommend it. The reference manual,
chapter 7, has all the details. Getting .config right might be
tricky, so if you need more help on that, ask.

Depends on the audio chipset used. AC97 by chance?. I use an SBlive,
so I have not enabled anything, but dmesg shows the AC97 audio codec
is being recognized all the same. I can only guess that the rest is
easy.
