It comes with the kernel-sources. /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound is
the directory, OPL3-SA2 is a text file.

Hm, why did you ask then in the first place? How are we supposed to help
you if you can't try out what we recommend? That's like asking: 'Office
97 didn't work in Win98 and I switched back to Win3.11. What was wrong?'
No offend meant, but that's pretty pointless.

Sorry, no idea. Maybe an old SVGA-lib version? Maybe the -b switch for
linux-logo would have helped. But we can't verify that anymore, can we?
