Subject: Re: 2.5.59 kernel bugs
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2003 01:14:21 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030228091421.GA617@hal9000.laufernet.com> (raw)

SOUND_SB is fixed as of 2.5.62 or so. Work is being done on
SOUND_AWE32_SYNTH but the structure of the driver doesn't fit the new
PnP API and is going to require quite a bit of rewrite. Not sure how
many people still use these old ISA sound cards... I only had a
handful of volunteers this time around to help test the soundblaster
fixes. During 2.3 there was significantly more interest for this once
wildly popular sound card. Other drivers for cards like the PAS16 that
weren't popular to begin with (and are 10+ years old) may have trouble
finding someone willing to update it.
