I am having trouble installing PnP soundblaster soundcard. The thing
is, i have succeded is patching the kernel with the PNP patch provided
under xperiments. And it worked. This is the pnp.c configration. (read
on)
/* Configuration for the SoundBlaster 16 PnP */
{
0x10073b56, /* Serial Number */
-1, /* Logical Device Number */
{
{ 5, -1 }, /* Primary IRQ Number, Type */
{ -1, -1 } /* Second IRQ Number, Type */
},
{ 5, -1 }, /* DRQ Number */
{
0x220, /* Ports 1 */
0x330, /* Ports 2 */
0x388, /* Ports 3 */
-1, /* Ports 4 */
-1, /* Ports 5 */
-1, /* Ports 6 */
-1, /* Ports 7 */
-1, /* Ports 8 */
},
{
{ -1, -1, -1 }, /* Memory desc0 - base, ctrl, range */
{ -1, -1, -1 }, /* Memory desc1 - base, ctrl, range */
{ -1, -1, -1 }, /* Memory desc2 - base, ctrl, range */
{ -1, -1, -1 } /* Memory desc3 - base, ctrl, range */
}
}
And the output the kernel gives at the beginning is:
Board Vendor ID: CTL002b Board Serial Number: 10073b56
Configuring (Logical Device 0)
As it became apparent to me this was not enough, the standard devices
in the kernel config file still have to be configured. What my
question basicaly is: what to do o have to set the
controller snd0
device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 7 conflicts drq 1
vector sbintr
device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5
device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330
device opl0 at isa? port 0x388
lines for my card to work if the pnpinfo gives me this:
Checking for Plug-n-Play devices...
Trying Read_Port at 203
Card assigned CSN #1
Board Vendor ID: CTL002b

I have tried a number of configurations nad not one of them worked.
The best i got is the midi working every time. Even when i get the
message that all the devices (sb0, sbxvi0, opl0, sbmidi0) are
configured midi works, but programs envolving some other format just
dont give output (some of them crash saying:
DMA timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error?
I know what this should mean but i tried so many different settings.
If it helps i can change the card resource settings using a program
under dos.
And, yes, the card worked fine on other OS's.
Thank you in advance.
