Problems with sound card and NIC

Hello, I got a problem: since several version of the kernel we can't
choose the io, irq, dma, etc... for the oss 100% compatible sound
blaster sound card, my sound card should be set on irq 5. In kernel
version 2.3.42 my sound card is irq 5 and my net card is irq 10, but
when I try to build a kernel newer than 2.3.42 (I think that 2.3.42 is
the last one where we can choose the settings of the sound card) I got a

problem: the kernel put irq 5 on my network card and didn't detect my
sound blaster card (SB32).

How can I tell to the kernel (2.4.0) that my nic (AcerLAN ALN-101) is
irq 5 ?
I use the NE2000 driver for this one...
And how can I tell to the kernel to use irq 5 for my sb32 card ?

This is a snippet of "procinfo" for kernel version 2.3.42 and 2.4.0
Please help my cause I really need another kernel version that the old
2.3.42...
Note: 2.2.16 and 2.2.17 don't work too cause again we can't choose the
irq, dma, etc...

2.3.42:
irq 0: 5559 timer irq 10: 12 NE2000
irq 1: 152 keyboard irq 11: 65 fdomain
irq 2: 0 cascade [4] irq 12: 0 PS/2 Mouse
irq 5: 1 soundblaster irq 13: 1 fpu
irq 6: 3 irq 14: 49418 ide0

2.4.0:
irq 0: 579821 timer irq 6: 3
irq 1: 6043 keyboard irq 11: 65 fdomain
irq 2: 0 cascade [4] irq 12: 1220 PS/2 Mouse
irq 5: 0 NE2000 irq 14: 77770 ide0

Thank you so much !!!
