Hi,

I can't get my sound card to work and I'm hoping that someone can help
me out. 

I've got a dual-booted system (Win95 is my other OS) which recognizes my
card as "SoundBlaster 16 or AWE32", irq5, dma1, dma5, i/o ranges
0x220-0x22F, 0x330-0x331, 0x388-0x38B.  I've recompiled my kernel with the
following lines included:

# SOUND STUFF HERE
options SBC_IRQ=5             #PAS-16. Must match irq on sb0 line.
controller      snd0
controller      pnp0
device sb0      at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr
device sbxvi0   at isa? drq 5
device sbmidi0  at isa? port 0x330
device opl0     at isa? port 0x388 
device awe0     at isa? port 0x220 

# END


When I boot, sb0, sbxvi0, sbmidi0 and opl0 are not found.  awo0 is found
at 0x220 but then I get the line "AWE32 NOT FOUND".  What's up wioth that?

Finally, when I run sh /dev/MAKEDEV pnp0 and snd0, MAKEDEV fails quietly.
Maybe I have to modify the script somehow.   FWIW, my motherboard is a
Titanium I P51430TX which supports a pnp OS.

Does anybody know what I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,
Chris
