I've got a plug and play BIOS.  My understanding is that it assigns
resources to plug and play devices so that I don't need a plug and play
OS, am I right?  Does this mean I can actually use my plug and play SB16
card in Linux?  I'd hate to recompile my kernel, configure sound support
and then spend days trying to debug it just to find out I'm wrong. 
Thanks.
Craig
