For now, until the sound driver in -current > is up to par, you can just comment this message out of isa.c Could the excessive occurance of this message or that fact that it is there lead to stability problems? Reason I'm asking is: Yesterday while playing with vat 4.0a8 I got a total system freeze which was preceded by a somewhat jumpy mouse action. I moved the mouse cursor in and out of the vat window and suddenly the mouse arrow warped to a different location. I was speaking into the mic and was playing with the button below of the mic (the one that turns into a different icon now when clicking on it). Then I clicked in the title bar of the vat window and, pugh - freeze. > > > Sujal > > --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@gil.physik.rwth-aachen.de
