My sound is working, so asound probably is not critical.

Modprobe probably is but would not look like mine. It is pasted below.

  cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 natsemi
alias scsi_hostadapter pata_ali
alias snd-card-0 snd-ali5451
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-ali5451 index=0
alias eth1 airo_cs
