help set up AWE64G isapnp?

I've been wrestling with trying to get my AWE64g pnp running on my RedHat 
box, but arn't getting anywhere.  I've followed all the instructions in 
the sound-howto, awe-mini-howto, isapnp-howto, kernel-howto etc.  to no 
avail.

I am running a RedHat 5.2 box that I upgraded from 5.1.  It is now 
running kernel 2.2.1.  I have compiled the sound drivers as modules.

attached is a copy of my isapnp.conf, which has all the settings that 
windows reports should be correct.

here's what happens when I try to load the sound module:

Script started on Mon Feb 15 20:10:26 1999
[root@bw66 .netscape]# modprobe -a sound
/lib/modules/2.2.1/misc/sb.o: too many values for dma (max 1)
sound: Device or resource busy
[root@bw66 .netscape]# 
[root@bw66 .netscape]# exit

Script done on Mon Feb 15 20:10:40 1999

I'm really quite frustrated and confused.  I've tried this from start to 
finish half a dozen times to make sure I wasn't skipping any steps and i 
can't see where I'm going wrong.  Any help would be GREATLY appriciated, 
since my senior project which is due in 2 march is depending on this.  

Thanks in advace,

Josh

Replace the 'dma=1,5' in /etc/conf.modules with
'dma=1 dma16=5'.
