Steve Frank:
 |I have an IWILL KA266 motherboard with onboard CMI8738/C3DX sound chip.
 |I have been unable to get it setup and hopefully someone can help me
 |out.  I've tried all the sugestions given to me from the newsgroup
 |without success.

Sure.  I have one on my ASUS A7M266 motherboard and it works great with
4.3-STABLE.  IIRC from the archives, 4.3-RELEASE may have problems with
this chip (though I may be confusing this with the AMD761 northbridge
support on my MB; I know that had problems).  Anyway, check me by doing
your own searches (groups.google.com).

Also, not sure what John was talking about with the 3COM modem being ISA.

Here's what I get with 4.3-STABLE cvsuped on 6/24/01:

    pcm0: <CMedia CMI8738> port 0xa400-0xa4ff irq 10 at device 5.0 on pci0
    ...
    ncr0: <ncr 53c810 fast10 scsi> port 0x9800-0x98ff mem 0xf1000000-0xf10000ff \
          irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0

Note also that my SCSI card is sharing the same interrupt as they're both
non-ISA devices.  No problems at all.  My kernel:

    device       pcm0
    device       sbc0    at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15

No tweaks or hacks required here.  It just works.  I also have no ISA bus
to deal with anymore (whew), but if you do, make sure you have all of your
IRQ/DMA channels allotted to ISA cards reserved for ISA in your BIOS.
