    The xsun24 package is not installed. But I don't understand why it
    is not installed. Since SaX detects the right card hardware probing
    works fine ...

    Install the xsun24 package and run SaX again. That should work.

    Linux is like a Vorlon.  It is incredibly powerful, gives terse,
    cryptic answers and has a lot of things going on in the background.
