Yes, just nuke this out from isa.c:isa_dmastatus and you will be okay,
/* channel active? */
if ((dma_inuse & (1 << chan)) == 0) {
/* printf("isa_dmastatus: channel %d not active\n", chan);
return(-1); */
}
/* still busy? */
if ((dma_busy & (1 << chan)) == 0) {
/* return(0); */
}
Next release of the sound driver will not use isa_dmastatus from isa.c
rather I will duplicate the functionality in the sound driver.
