In the same way one would argue that we should have, under /sys/i386/isa scsi/ net/ sio/ misc/ all in all I'd keep all files in the same directory, at most trying to cleanup/merge things, and leave the shuffling for a next step. > 2) Is full-duplex supported on some cards (esp. the sb16/32)?

The current code is based on the 3.0 release and, as I understand, full duplex is only supported through a dirty hack on some cards. If that helps, both crystal, analog devices and Opti have online docs on the various codecs used for full duplex boards (WSS/MSS): the CS423x, AD1848/1845, Opti931. As far as I know there is no documentation available on the net from Creative and Yamaha for the Soundblaster, and FM synthesizer, or the midi stuff. Amancio, are you there :) ?
