That woudl be a good suggestion if it weren;t for the fact that SB Live is a
PCI card, hence it is ONLY PnP.
I had the same problem, and found that in Linux the SB Live card and USB use
the same IRQ. That problem did not occur in Windows or when I switched back to
Redhat ... 
so .. the one thing I can suggest is to move the SB Live to a different slot to
see if ot loads at a different IRQ,
If that doesn't get it ... I dunno what to say other than start screaming at
the dev guys ...

 Try to go into your CMOS and disable PNP. That could be the culprit.
 Just a suggestion.

Can't change DMA in a SB Live ... it is a PCI, PnP device .. so it is at the
mercy of the BIOS.

Same here - 7.2 was the first mandrake release that found and correctly 
configured my SBLive ! Value out of the box. Do you have no sound at all ? 
Have you tried wavs and mp3s ?

I had a similar problem with another machine that had an older sound 
blaster card.  HardDrake did show the correct card, but I got no 
sound.  What I did was changed the DMA values.  After doing so, the sound 
worked great!

I don't know if this would apply to SB Live, but it might be worth a shot.

2000-12-06 Thread Shayne Schecht

As  had posted before .. the reason that it is doing that (depends on your 
compuiter of course) from what I found is that there is a resource conflict 
with the USB bus. In my system both sit at 9 and that renders it mostly 
worthless ...

Meaning I will be going back to Redhat. I do not have this trouble in 
Windows or in Redhat .. so ...back I go ...

Anyhow, cheers and good luck
