I managed to get the vibra16 on my work computer going after a long time
struggling with it. I tried everything - RH sndconfg, alsa, howtos, pnp
tools.. Eventually it worked when I upgraded to kernel 2.2 and compiled
sound as a module (as I had done before) and RH sndconfig found the card
and configured it in about 10 seconds..
Donncha.
