that is kinda what I'm figuring too ...

Actually, I thought about this, and one problem with this theory ... right
now, I have both serial ports and the parallel port disabled, which should
free up 3/4 and 5 (or is it 7?) ... if I re-enable them, they come up fine
with their respective IRQs ;(

Will try this one tomorrow at the office ...

If you have the time I would be very interested in having more information about your 
configuration as I am contemplating building a similar SMP system. How much memory do 
you have installed and what use do you have for the system?

Any information much appreciated.

ASUS A7M266-D: enabling 'on board sound'

2002-04-23 Thread Marc G. Fournier


Morning all ...

Just recently picked up an ASUS A7M266-D Motherboard with Dual:
"(AMD Athlon(TM) MP Processor (1200.05-MHz 686-class CPU)" ... the system
purrs like the proverbial kitten ... but the one thing that is eluding me
so far is getting the onboard sound to work ...

I think I've gone through just about everything ... I enabled
PNPBIOS in my kernel, made sure the sound device was enabled in the BIOS
... nadda ...

The error I'm seeing in dmesg is:

pcm0:  at device 4.0 on pci2
pcm0: cmi_attach: Cannot allocate bus resource
device_probe_and_attach: pcm0 attach returned 6

I've tried manually setting in the kernel:

> strings /kernel | grep pcm0
pcm0_resources
___device   pcm0 at isa? irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x0

but that hasn't made any difference ...

Anyone have any experience with this board, or this chipset, that
might be able to suggest a course of action here?

thanks ...
