No. It's the same with RH5.1, but the modularized sound system have been
in linux-2.1.x for quite a while now, so you have to live with it
(assuming 2.2 will be out soon).
I have an AWE32pnp and cant get midi to work, but it works nicely as a
SB16. I use this script for loading sound modules:
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/modprobe sound
/sbin/insmod uart401
/sbin/insmod sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330
/sbin/insmod awe_wave
The last line fails, but the rest works. Maybe it can be fixed with
isapnptools -- suggestions are welcome.
greetings,
