[ale] 3dfx card conflict

[smnoldelinux at mediaone.net]

Upon further investigation, I get conflicts with the 3dfx card if more
than two PCI cards are used.  So, I can either use the NIC or the sound
card, but not both.  I still probably need to tinker with the BIOS a
bit.  BTW, here's some /proc stuff to mull over if anyone can help.

And I'm waiting to hear from 3dfx tech support....
