SB16 pnp

SB16 pnp

[chin hooi chee]

I have problem with configuring my Sound Card with kernel 2.0.30.
My sound card is Sound Blaster 16, I am not very sure wheter the sound card is plug & play or not. But I install it in Windows'95 it shows SB16 PnP.

So I use isapnptools v1.17 and config

% isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf

Board 1 has Identity d7 00 00 15 f5 24 00 8c 0e:  CTL0024 Serial No 5621 [checksum d7]
CTL0024/5621[0]{Audio               }: Ports 0x220 0x330 0x388; IRQ5 DMA1 DMA5 --- Enabled OK

% lsmod 

Module:        #pages:  Used by:
sound             10		0
ppp                5		0
slip               2		0
slhc               2	[ppp slip]	0
lp                 2		0

BUT
% cat /dev/sndstat

Sound Driver:3.5.4-960630 (Tue Mar 2 05:22:12 SGT 1999 root,

Config options: 0

Installed drivers: 

Card config: 

Audio devices:

Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG

Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG

Timers:

Mixers:

So I can't use the device, what is going wrong?

You have to edit /etc/isapnp.conf to include these lines-
 (IO 1 (BASE 0x0A20))
 (IO 2 (BASE 0x0E20))  
read the soundblaster  mini- HOW TO  at
ftp:metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/unmaintained/mini/Soundblaster-16
it explains it fully-
have fun !!!

You need to run isapnp *before* loading the module. Also, 
since you're using an older driver, what settings did you
compile into the kernel for the module?
