// from :Anders a.k.a Caine
I just installed Debian on an old 486, which has a old sony cdu33a cdrom connected to a soundblaster 16. The problem is that the soundcard only has jumper settings for the cdroms irq, not for the base adress, and stupid as I am, I didn't have those written down somewhere since I haven't used this comp for some 2-3 years. After having tried all possible irq and base adresses combination with the sony cdu31a module (which I have a vauge memory of working when I first installed linux on this computer), I was wondering if there is any nice way to determine irq & base adress and therefore being able to use it. Or if there is any other nice method to get it to work I don't know of ;) ------------------------------------------------------- go to the soundblaster (creative labs) web site and you will find the jumper settings for your soundblaster 16 card. I got a similar card (without cd interface) from a used computer store with no documentation and was able to find what I needed from their web site. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
