OK.  Clarification for Tim Wright: we were talking only about the wave table
functions.  In fact I have an original non-pnp awe32.  The problems I had
were getting the sound part of the kernel to compile as a whole (a single
sound.o) or loading "modularized" sound which gave my symbol errors.  Under
Slackware I had all kernel versions working up thru 2.0.33.  It was
definitely RH's changes in 5.0 which broke it.

Neal - is it working for you as a single module or a bunch of sub-modules?
