Looks like I was mistaken. I saw someone's post about how the
"mixer" command helped with another card and figured I'd give it a
try. It worked. :) The command I used was "mixer mic 100" and as
soon as I'd done that, I could record sound through my microphone.

Two things, though.../dev/audio and /dev/dsp both work but the two
seem to do two different things. It appears that /dev/audio
handles mu-law encoded sound. But what is the format for /dev/dsp?

Also, while I was playing, I had a fairly long "record" session
and during it, my machine got screwed up. There were complaints
from the SCSI driver and some other oddities which, naturally,
never made it into the syslog. The kernel was still running but
anything that hit the disk fell over. I had to reset (not control
alt del) the machine to get it back.
