Soundcard probs and total novice - update - and only a minor problem now

[Steve Hargreaves <Steve@hargreavess.freeserve.co.uk>]

OK - thanks to those who replied - you gave me some clues, and now I've got 
the soundcard working using OSS ensuring that the correct modules are used.

Now the minor problem. I use an S99local file to insmod required modules 
(don't go suggesting that I compile my own kernel - last time I tried that I 
nearly trashed my system), which at the moment looks like this:-

insmod usb-ohci
insmod ac97
insmod ac97_codec
insmod ac97_plugin_wm97xx
insmod sound
insmod i810_audio
/usr/X11R6/bin/startx

However - sound and i810_audio don't get inserted. If I open a console and do 
it manually after boot then there's no problem, and the sound works 
wonderfully after re-starting X (restarting the sound server doesn't do it).

Any idea why these modules are still left out?

Thanks.
