According to the docs on the yamaha site http://www.yamahayst.com/opl3sa0.htm they have an integrated SB and WSS compatible codec. I have seen these cards quite cheap here (comparable to OPTI and Crystal devices) and so I was curious if they are available elsewhere and if it is worthwhile try to support them as well (as a rule, I would not bother with cards which have a very limited availability, unless the porting effort is minimal. But in this case the port seems to be simple, and the card might be quite widespread even if they don't seem to have a data sheet online). If anyone with such a card can try it with my sound driver, or send me the output of pnpinfo, I would be grateful.
