Sound modules?  I've been setting up my new Compaq Presario 2195US and
decided to load all the sound modules to see if any of them worked as
well as the if_ndis module.  It dropped to gdb very early in the boot
but did not respond to the keyboard.  I unloaded the snd modules on the
next boot and it came up fine.

(if_ndis is cool!  I'm currently connected through my Broadcom WiFi part
 using "Project Evil".  The coolest thing is how dead simple it was to
 get it working. )
