i have an awe64 gold sound card, and i'm having a heck of a time configuring it. part of the problem is that the instructions given in the debian package seem to be out of date, and isapnp is a subject i know very little about.
i followed the instructions to the letter, but am on shaky ground for: 7b. Edit isapnp.conf file. Comment out the appropriate lines containing desirable I/O ports, DMA and IRQs. Don't forget to enable (ACT Y) line. 7c. Add two i/o ports (0xA20 and 0xE20) in WaveTable part. ex) (CONFIGURE CTL0048/58128 (LD 2 # ANSI string -->WaveTable<-- (IO 0 (BASE 0x0620)) (IO 1 (BASE 0x0A20)) (IO 2 (BASE 0x0E20)) (ACT Y) )) 7d. Load the config file. CAUTION: This will reset all PnP cards! first, it seems like EVERYTHING is commented out in the dump of pnpdump, so i simply added the lines given in step 7c. unfortunately, isapnp didn't like them. it complained: Don't know what to do with CONFIGURE CTL0048/58128 (LD 2 on or around line 342 /etc/isapnp.conf:342 -- Fatal - Error occurred parsing config file --- no action taken i can get the soundcard to work using the OSS commercial sound drivers, but for some reason, they seem to be incompatible with quake 3, and the kernel sound drivers work fine with it (this was when i was using the creative PCI-128 sound card). is there anyone out there with an awe64/awe32 who got it to work? can someone hold my hand through the configuration? thanks! pete ---------------------------------------------------------------- linux One world, one web, one program. -- Microsoft Ad Campaign _ Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer. -- Nazi Ad Campaign ._. <=>+/\/-=Prevent world domination, Install Linux today!=-\/\+<=> /v\ website coming soon as I get DSL [EMAIL PROTECTED] // \\ ---------------------------------------------------------------- ^^ ^^ The best way to accelerate a win95 system is at 9.81 m/s^2 rules
