Thanks All.................
It turns out that it was a BIOS related issue. In TYAN Tomcat IV
MB BIOS I had to enable the Chipset Special Features.
Sound seems to be working again. .. some how I knew that somone
else would be running an SMP Linux machine with a SB card............
Has anyone started on a method of binding a process (or device /
IRQ ) to a specific CPU. (Similar to what Mindcraft had done under NT in
the benchmarks).
Most *NIXes can do this, and while I was looking thru the source
code I was thinking that it could fairly easily be done, by creating a
sub-directory in the /proc filesystem (call it bind) then one could
create a file under the bind directory. The filename would be the
process id and all it would contain is the cpu that is desired to run
the process. Then the kernel scheduler could look in the bind
directory and it the current task is in the bind dir the it would read
the file and schedule the process on the cpu specified in the file.
Anyone have any input on this...
