If you want the driver to autoload, you have to set up the
/etc/conf.modules file. Here's what mine looks like for a gravis
ultrasound=

<SNIP!>

alias snd-minor-oss-0 snd-mixer
alias snd-minor-oss-3 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-4 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-5 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-card-0 snd-gusclassic
options snd snd_major=14 snd_cards_limit=2
options snd-gusclassic snd_index=1 snd_port=0x220 snd_irq=11 snd_dma1=5
snd_dma2=7

<SNIP!>


It will look a bit different for the cs4237, but not too much. Look in
the INSTALL file with the driver, which BTW, says...

<SNIP!>

 Module snd-card-cs4236.o
  ------------------------

    Module for soundcards based on CS4235/CS4236/CS4236B/CS4237B/
                                   CS4238B/CS4239 chips.

    snd_port    - port # for CS4232 chip (PnP setup - 0x534)
    snd_cport   - control port # for CS4232 chip (PnP setup - 0x120)
    snd_mpu_port - port # for MPU-401 UART (PnP setup - 0x300), -1 =
disable
    snd_fm_port - FM port # for CS4232 chip (PnP setup - 0x388), -1 =
disable
    snd_jport   - joystick port for CS4232 chip (PnP setup - 0x200), -1
= disable
    snd_irq     - IRQ # for CS4232 chip (5,7,9,11,12,15)
    snd_mpu_irq - IRQ # for MPU-401 UART (9,11,12,15)
    snd_dma1    - first DMA # for CS4232 chip (0,1,3)
    snd_dma1_size - max first DMA size in kB (4-64kB)
    snd_dma2    - second DMA # for Yamaha CS4232 chip (0,1,3), -1 =
disable
    snd_dma2_size - max second DMA size in kB (4-64kB)

    Module supports up to 8 cards. This module doesn't supports
autoprobe
    thus main port and control port must be specified!!! Other ports are
    optional.

So.. Just guessing, yours should look something like:


<SNIP!>

alias snd-minor-oss-0 snd-mixer
alias snd-minor-oss-3 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-4 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-minor-oss-5 snd-pcm1-oss
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-cs4236
options snd snd_major=14 snd_cards_limit=2
options snd-card-cs4236 snd_index=1 snd_port 0x534 snd_cport 0x120
snd_mpu_port 0x300 snd_fm_port 0x388 snd_jport 0x200 snd_irq 5
snd_mpu_irq 9 snd_dma1

<SNIP!>

Assuming that the settings in your email were correct. Then, if you are
using redhat, you can use the "alsasound" sys5-type-script that comes
with the driver to start the driver for you on boot up. It also unmutes
the mixer for you as well.

Hope this helps..
