Here is a link for someone with same card:

http://www.computing.net/linux/wwwboard/forum/22487.html

One says no problem with it and gives his config, other says he couldn't
get it to work, another says check enabled in bios.

>From what I remember a AC97 computer I had would not work in RH8 , but
worked straight away with RH9 (I was particulary interested in why - I
was using it as a webserver.)
