And do I have to do anything with alsa-driver? Or how can I get my hands on such a snd-opl3sa2 kernel module? >>>> What is still relevant to get my laptop to play/record mp3 files? >>> >>> The snd-opl3-sa2 module. >> >> I don't have such a module available: >> $ modinfo snd-opl3-sa2 >> ERROR: Module snd-opl3-sa2 not found. > > Sorry, it's actually named snd-opl3sa2. That doesn't help either: $ modinfo snd-opl3sa2 ERROR: Module snd-opl3sa2 not found. Looks like I'll have to compile that module.
