Hi folks,

	I have had a couple of GUS MAX's for ages.  I don't often use them
so I can't say when support for them broke, but the 2.2.6 voxware drivers
seem to be pretty broken. 

	I can throw the boards in a windoze PC and make them work, but
under 2.2.6 I get no sound and some syslog messages.  Here's the snippet
from the syslog:

> gus0 at 0x220 irq 12 drq 6 flags 0x3 on isa
> gus0: <Gravis UltraSound 2.4 (512k)>
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired

	The isa_dmastart messages occur everytime I try to cat an .au file
to /dev/audio.  I looked into the sound dirver source and it looks like
the above message was meant to be included in a "#ifdef DIAGNOSTICS"
section.  In fact the driver doesn't appear to acquire the DMA chanel at
all.  The only acquired ISA DMA channel on  my system is the floppy, drq
2.

	Has anyone gont a MAX working under 2.2.6?  

	Adrian
