I figured out what I did wrong. I needed to run isapnp.
So I ran "pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf" and modified the results of that
and saved it. That would reserve the 0x0330 I/O port for the card,
no IRQ or DMA used.
So I need to run as root:
isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf
modprobe videodev.o
modprobe radio-cadet.o io=0x330
The io=0x330 I got from digging into the source code of radio-cadet.
So where do I stick the three lines above? I assume that it goes into
rc.local right? Well I am learning a few things about Linux and
trying to remember enough C to figure it out what the HOWTOs don't
cover.
Thanks,
PBen
