Ubuntu 7.04

Does anyone know where I can find "take-me-by-the-hand" tutorial designed for a Linux imbecile like me? I have installed the software and most hardware has been detected and installed but I can't find a step-by-step tute to install my soundcard drivers. TIA.

Thanks. I have registered with the forums but didn't find an answer there. By chance I removed the old winmodem in the pc (an old Dell dimension) and the soundcard was recognized and the drivers installed automatically. So I solved the soundcard problem but not the problem of not knowing what the hell I am doing with linux yet.

Being a n00bie is such fun

You're not alone in this "figuring it all out" switch.
Hang in there.
