If you have a sound card in your computer, i.e. if it can say more
than an occasional beep, say Y. Be sure to have all the information
about your sound card and its configuration down (I/O port,
interrupt and DMA channel), because you will be asked for it.
You want to read the Sound-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. General information about
the modular sound system is contained in the files
<file:Documentation/sound/oss/Introduction>. The file
<file:Documentation/sound/oss/README.OSS> contains some slightly
outdated but still useful information as well. Newer sound
driver documentation is found in <file:Documentation/sound/alsa/*>.
If you have a PnP sound card and you want to configure it at boot
time using the ISA PnP tools (read
<http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/>), then you need to
compile the sound card support as a module and load that module
after the PnP configuration is finished. To do this, choose M here
and read <file:Documentation/sound/oss/README.modules>; the module
will be called soundcore.
I'm told that even without a sound card, you can make your computer
say more than an occasional beep, by programming the PC speaker.
Kernel patches and supporting utilities to do that are in the pcsp
package, available at <ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/pcsp/>.
