Subject: ISA Soundblaster problem
Reply-to: [e-mail]

The Maintainers list does not contain anyone for 2.4 Soundblaster
modules, so perhaps some one on the mailing list is aware of a
solution.  My ISA Soundblaster 16waveffects worked fine in kernel 2.2
with XMMS.  But I have never been successful in a varity of 2.4
kernels, the latest being 2.4.5-ac12.  This is what I know:

isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
isapnp: Calling quirk for 01:00
isapnp: SB audio device quirk - increasing port range
isapnp: Card 'Creative SB16 PnP'
isapnp: 1 Plug & Play card detected total

}modprobe sb  
/lib/modules/2.4.5-ac12/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o: init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.5-ac12/kernel/drivers/sound/sb.o: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters

sb: No ISAPnP cards found, trying standard ones...
sb: dsp reset failed.

So it seems that PnP finds the card, but the connections (or even the
forced values) to the sb module fail.  Back when this was a single
processor machine, but still running 2.4 kernel, a windoze
installation found the SB at the listed interface parameters.

Anyone have a solution?

Same problem without modules.conf settings, valid version of mod
utilities, a web search did not help,...

TIA
