try linuxhardware.net 
I found this It might work

[SNIP]

The card works under Dos, and is (partially) compatible with SoundBlaster
Pro II. 
 Settings are address = 220, irq = 5, dma = 1, doesn't have 16-bit DMA,
because it isn't 16-bit. 
 That's why it's only partially compatible with SB, and is source of
problems under Linux. 
 The card can be configured as Sound Blaster, but 16-bit sampled sound
files won't be played as
 should. What you'll get is only noise. 
 Very good solution seems to be the driver from opensoundsystems, which
works (almost)
 perfectly, but is commercial. 
 After testing period it is limited to 20 minutes of constant usage.
