The drivers of Asus motherboard of sound for linux are on the Motherboard cd, check them if they're or not.

Intel 845GVSR with same BIOS
Driver is frm intel cd

Sarge is just too old my friend. Either grab some newer distro or you'll need to compile a new kernel.

You Must Be Wrong Explore The Cd You Will Get The Drivers For Linux
Don't Go On Autoplay

em?wat is the latest debian?

etch will be out soon, till then you can either use rc1 of etch or use ubuntu. Both can do for a home user.
