Hi, I'm tracking -CURRENT and build a kernel yesterday with the following options (edited): device sbc # Soundblaster Bridge-Code to pcm device pcm # PnP/PCI Sound Cards #device midi # Midi interfaces #device seq # Sequencer The corresponding hints are: <none> Without midi device, this is the relevant dmesg part: [...] vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0 sbc0: <Creative SB AWE64> at port 0x220-0x22f,0x330-0x331,0x388-0x38b \ irq 5 drq 1,5 on isa0 pcm1: <SB16 DSP 4.16> on sbc0 unknown: <PNP0401> can't assign resources unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources unknown: <PNP0501> can't assign resources unknown: <PNP0700> can't assign resources unknown: <PNP0303> can't assign resources ed0 XXX: driver didn't initialize queue mtx lp0 XXX: driver didn't initialize queue mtx lo0 XXX: driver didn't initialize queue mtx ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable [...] and the kernel happily boots. Sound is usable as before. Now, adding midi (either alone or together with seq) produces the following messages: sbc0: <Creative SB AWE64> at port 0x220-0x22f,0x330-0x331,0x388-0x38b \ irq 5 drq 1,5 on isa0 pcm1: <SB16 DSP 4.16> on sbc0 midi0: <SB Midi Interface> on sbc0 midi1: <SB OPL FM Synthesizer> on sbc0 midi2: <CTL0022 WaveTable Synthesizer> at port 0x620-0x623 on isa0 exactly here, the system hangs completely. What I'm I missing?
