Get Sound to work in 16 bit mode, quite interesting for the Libby LINUX
users :

In the last 3 years I used only 8-bit sound using the SoundBlaster Pro
module, inserted by :


/sbin/modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=3 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x300
It worked fine, but the sound quality was barely acceptable. However,
recently I found out that it is also possible to use 16 bit sound on the
Libretto !!! To use that you have to use another kernel module that I didn't
know about until recently and which is named the OPL3-SA2 driver.


/sbin/rmmod sb
/sbin/modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x220 mss_io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0

Note that the first dma is 1 and the second dma 0 and NOT the other way
round ...

Believe me: this makes an incredible difference in Sound quality. Finally my
MP3 files also sound perfectly well on the Libretto ;-)
