MSI K8N Extreme

your motherboard should have the Realtek ALC850 which is the same as my MSI 
board and works fine when using the intel ac97 ALSA drivers:
snd_intel8x0           33664  0
snd_ac97_codec        105028  1 snd_intel8x0
snd_ac97_bus            3712  1 snd_ac97_codec
snd_pcm_oss            52896  0
snd_mixer_oss          17536  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm                89480  3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer              23432  1 snd_pcm
snd                    52704  6 
snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer
