>Please try to compile the sound card according to your configuration. >I have compiled different possible configurations, but have only >tested the gus driver (not gusxvi and gusmax). I compiled a kernel for SoundBlaster 16 with the following config: controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 6 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 device opl0 at isa? port 0x388 Don't know if I got this all exactly right, but the kernel linked OK. I had the following problems: The midi device seemed to probe on the first (cold) boot, but then didn't probe after a warm boot. Though I was able to play .au files to /dev/audio, reading /dev/dsp produced a short header, then apparently no actual data. Reading /dev/dsp1 gave a "Device not configured" error (I don't know if this was supposed to work or not.) Reading /dev/dsp16 produces data, but I don't really know what to do with it. Playing it back on /dev/audio yields noise. If I plug a mike in the back, how can I record? This is about all I tried. I'm not sure exactly what to do with the various devices. I haven't tried looking very hard for an FAQ or man page, but one didn't really jump out and bite me, either. Any advice would be welcomed. - Gene
