You don't specify which version or distribution of Linux you are running. Many newer releases will read NTFS partitions, however the default Linux filesystem in most cases is ext3. You should repartition/reformat your drive using your distribution's default filesystem if you intend to use it as your primary disk.

Sound can be tricky, but many modern distributions get it right out of the box. One of the LiveCD distributions might be a good option for you to try as it does not require you to install anything on the hard drive, and will run completely from CD/DVD. You can see (hear?) if your hardware is supported before committing to an install. Look up Ubuntu as one good example, although there are others.

NAME

       byobu-launcher-install - Byobu Launcher installation utility

SYNOPSIS

       byobu-launcher-install [-n|--no-logout]

DESCRIPTION

       byobu-launcher-install(1)  is  a  simple utilty that will add a line to your $HOME/.profile file which launches byobu(1) any time you login
