 If you still cannot get the module to load, look at the contents of
 your system log file, usually /var/log/messages.  If you see the
-message "No Yamaha audio controller found", then you have a different
-chipset than I've encountered so far.  Look for a line in the log file
-that says "opl3sa2.c: chipset version = <some number>".  If you want
-me to add support for your card, send me the number from this line and
-any information you have on the make and chipset of your sound card,
-and I should be able to work up a permanent fix.
-
-A temporary solution is to force the driver to act as either a SA2 or
-SA3.  If you use the modular driver, this can be done with the "force"
-option.  Using "force=2" makes the driver treat your card as a SA2,
-and "force=3" makes it treat your card as a SA3.  Note that the driver
-does not really differentiate internally between the SA3 and SAx, so
-"force=3" is actually suitable for an SAx card.
-
-If you build the driver into the kernel, a similar option is
-available, "Chipset".  Setting it to 2 or 3 will yield the same result
-as the "force" option does for the module.  I recommend trying
-auto-probing first ("Chipset" equal to the default of -1) before
-forcing compatibility with a specific chipset.

 If you do not see the chipset version message, and none of the other
 messages present in the system log are helpful, email me some details
