HUGE Thanks to KlhRevolutionist for his guidance in getting my sound working.
1.) I installed usr_devx to /mnt/home and rebooted. I also installed every library for Puppy I could find from pupget.
2.) I downloaded the OSS package for the 2.4 Linux kernel.
3.) I opened Rox and typed the following: ./oss-install
4.) I followed the instructions and after a couple of clicks, it installed the correct driver.
This did not work without usr_devx installed. Maybe the reboot helped. Either way...I finally have sound on my laptop and all is good in the world!!!
