You still need isapnp. Kernel pnp doesn't do ISA cards, AFAIK.

I have an SB16 PNP and mine says: Module Size Used by opl3 10264 0 sb 30852 0 uart401 5628 0 [sb] sound 55156 0 [opl3 sb uart401] soundcore 2192 6 [sb sound] As well as `sound', you need to load sb. It no longer links the actual device code in to the sound module directly (which is a good thing, because it doesn't compile in the IRQs and DMAs either). You might need to edit /etc/modutils/options to handle this too. I have options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 mpu_io=0x330 dma16=5 options opl3 io=0x388 (run update-modules after editing that file) From your sndstat it looks like non-inserted modules is definately the problem.

2.2.0 kernel broke sound
Before upgrading to kernel 2.2.0, I had sound working perfectly. I have a SoundBlaster AWE 32 plug'n'play (ISA). With my 2.0.x kernels, I used isapnp, then loaded sound as a module (automatically by kerneld). With the 2.2.0 kernel, I've tried all of the following: * kernel 2.2.0 plug'n'play support (and no isapnp), both with sound as a module and built-in to the kernel * disable kernel 2.2 p'n'p support, and tried to use isapnp, both with sound as a module and built-in to the kernel. I get the following error when I try to use play (i.e. sox) to play a .wav file: sox: Can't open output file '/dev/dsp': Operation not supported by device When I try to play an .mp3 file with mpg123, I get the following error: Can't open /dev/dsp! These errors occur both as root, and as a normal user. My only guess is that I have sound somehow configured incorrectly, but it's beyond me... Here's the output of at cat /dev/sndstat, which should obviously have more to it...

With my 2.0.x kernels, I used isapnp, then loaded sound as a module (automatically by kerneld). I also have problems with sound after upgrading to kernel 2.2.0. /dev/sndstat is unchanged, but I'm not able to get sound out of my card. I use the CS4232 driver. The only error message I'm able to get is from rvplayer, which tells me: audio: write error: 578 bytes errno: 0 Other sound-players just don't do what they are expected to do. mpg123 and freeamp seems to play, but no there's no sound.

Unfortunately I am not sitting at my home machine right now. I compiled the kernel with plug 'n play support. However, the wave table portion of the card still requires isapnp. So I simply commented out the parts dealing with sound in isapnp.conf and left the wave table stuff. Everything is compiled as modules and I use the kernel autoloading of modules. You can find more info on this in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/awe.txt. You need to be sure to pass the modules their option settings in /etc/conf.modules ie. options sound io=0x200 irq=9 dma=1 etc Hope this helps Paul Miller Talons - President The Spirit of UNT [EMAIL PROTECTED]
