After installing your new kernel [snip] Not always true. I have a Creative Labs AWE64 ISA PNP. I use kernel 2.3.18ac10 and the built in isapnp routines. I also compiled sound support INTO the kernel and it works fine. The kernel iaspnp inits the card at bootup and then a few processes later the kernel sound finds the card and it works fine. Then again, not everyone likes using bleeding edge kernels. --Ian Ehrenwald
