After a month or so, my sound was working.
After another two months I got my modem working (ISA sucks and still sucks big time)

I think that it took me about a full year of pokign around to really know what the hell I was doing since nobody I knew had Linux or was willing to offer assistance.

Yeah the CLI is the best and hardest part. It is amazing the power of the unix CLI. Thats what got me hooked. Being able to open an XTerm and be able to quickly whap a few commands out and get the job done.
