Sound problem with RedHat 8.0

Hi,

This is my first experience with RedHat. Everything looks great except 
the sound.

I found over the internet that quiet people have the same problem, and 
hoped that one of RedHat fixes will bring light... I mean sound to my 
box. All the stuff I found did not help me so far (may be I was not 
reading correctly...).

In summary: I have no sound under RedHat 8.0.

I have a Soundblaster 16 PCI installed (actually, I thought that the 
previous sound card I had was too cheap and this was why it did not work 
under RedHat8.0, so I bought this one 2 days ago, with no more luck).

This card works just fine under WinXP. But under RedHat8.0 no sound at 
all. I usually use Gnome as my window manager.

When I run sndconfig, I first get the following auto-detected sound card:
    Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI es1371

When I try to manually use the Sounblaster 16 driver under sndconfig, I 
get the following problem (frankly, I don't understand most of the 
fields to fill in!):

modprobe errror

The following error occurred running the modprobe program:
/lib/modules/2.4.18-27.8.0/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o: init_module: No 
such device
/lib/modules/2.4.18-27.8.0/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o: insmod

/lib/modules/2.4.18-27.8.0/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o: insmod
sound-slot-0 failed

Thanks in advance for any help,

Djurdjura.
