I am having trouble getting 4.7-RELEASE to use my sound card, a Creative=20
VIBRA 128 PCI. (Known in other regions of the world as a Creative Ensoniq=20
AudioPCI, Soundblaster 16 PCI, and Audio PCI 128, according to the manual.)

The card is PnP-compatible (according to the manual), so following the=20
Handbook (=A7 16.2.1.1) I added the following to my kernel configuration=
 file:
         device pcm
         device sbc

However, the system apparently isn't finding the card; during booting there=
=20
aren't any messages, error or otherwise, concerning pcm or sbc.

During boot I do get:
         pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=3D0x1102, dev=3D0x8938) at 10.0 irq 12

and pciconf -vl says (in part):
         none0@pci0:10:0:        class=3D0x040100=20
card=3D0x59381102  chip=3D0x89381102 rev=3D0x00 hdr=3D0x00
         vendor   =3D 'Creative Labs'
         device   =3D 'EV1938 Sound'
         class    =3D multimedia
         subclass =3D audio

This suggests to me that the system is finding the card (on IRQ 12), but=20
apparently doesn't want to use it.

I have also tried (from the sbc(4) man page):
         device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15
with various IRQs and other settings, but also to no success.

I have popped the case to confirm the card is installed correctly, and=20
apparently it worked fine under Windows during testing (so the guy at the=20
computer store tells me).

Has anybody managed to get this kind of card working?
