As far as I remember there are special kernel-options for PCI-X. Maybe your 
kernel doesn't have the support?

The linux-driver for the soundcard will work![*] Once linux knows about the 
device. And as lspci is not showing the card, its not a question of the 
driver for the soundcard but of the drivers/support for PCI-X.

[*] This is not a promise or guarantee. I don't own such a card and I am not 
responsible/involved in the driver development. I am just judging from the 
experiences others have with Delta1010-cards and from my experience with 
linux (since 8 years).
