You still need isapnp. Kernel pnp doesn't do ISA cards, AFAIK. > I get the following error when I try to use "play" (i.e. "sox") to > play a .wav file: > sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': Operation not supported by device What does `lsmod' say about sound? I have an SB16 PNP and mine says: Module Size Used by opl3 10264 0 sb 30852 0 uart401 5628 0 [sb] sound 55156 0 [opl3 sb uart401] soundcore 2192 6 [sb sound] As well as `sound', you need to load sb. It no longer links the actual device code in to the sound module directly (which is a good thing, because it doesn't compile in the IRQs and DMAs either). You might need to edit /etc/modutils/options to handle this too. I have options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 mpu_io=0x330 dma16=5 options opl3 io=0x388 (run update-modules after editing that file) >From your sndstat it looks like non-inserted modules is definately the problem.
