Yep. I did an experiment to get sound out of my Blade 100 in Linux: using 32-bit PCI DMA mask, not the 30-bit one. This has been working for months without any stability problems. I do not listen much music here, occassional beeps and one soundplay a week. Works for me but I don't know wheter it really should :) Index: drivers/sound/trident.c =================================================================== RCS file: /vger/linux/drivers/sound/trident.c,v retrieving revision 1.50 diff -u -r1.50 trident.c --- drivers/sound/trident.c 10 Nov 2001 08:52:22 -0000 1.50 +++ drivers/sound/trident.c 17 Dec 2001 09:55:21 -0000 @@ -186,7 +186,7 @@ #define TRIDENT_CARD_MAGIC 0x5072696E /* "Prin" */ #define TRIDENT_STATE_MAGIC 0x63657373 /* "cess" */ -#define TRIDENT_DMA_MASK 0x3fffffff /* DMA buffer mask for pci_alloc_consist */ +#define TRIDENT_DMA_MASK 0xffffffff /* DMA buffer mask for pci_alloc_consist */ #define NR_HW_CH 32 -- Meelis Roos ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
