I have a solution for you, as well as a question of my own...
I upgraded my kernel to 2.2.3, and built the kernel with the
soundblaster
support as modules.
Look in the kernel documentation directory
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Sound
There is a file called VIBRA16 or something close to that. In it there
is a configuration file that you can save out to isapnp.conf. You will
need to upgrade your isapnp package, so go to a RPM repository and
get 1.17 or 1.18 from there.
The other thing you will need to do is set up your conf.modules (or
modules.conf) file correctly. In the kernel documentation directory,
there is another file called README.Modules. That has all the info
you need to set that file up.
OK. That will get you half way there. My Vibra when configured like
this will play 8-bit sounds only. When I run RealPlayer it will only
make noise when I disable 16-bit sound.
My question to everyone out there is How do I get my Vibra Soundblaster
PNP
to play 16-bit sound?
Thanks in advance,

I think sndconfig is a Red Hat thing.
My experience when I ran it was that it screwed everything up.
After a bit of diagnosis I discovered that it wrote out an isapnp.conf
file, and the Red Hat startup scripts discovered that file and started
running isapnp on boot-up. Anyway, the pnp configuration wasn't quite
right and both sound and my X configuration broke. Renaming the
isapnp.conf file fixed the problem. I have since upgraded to kernel
2.2.3

At the very least, you will need to create a swap partition and such.
And there's the issue of the boot partition... I'd do a minimal
installation, then move your old system over (i.e., /etc, /home, etc.)
partition by partition. Make sure you make a good back up of everything
first!

Mount all the partitions there, just like it'd be if you booted
up.. you know, /mnt /mnt/usr or whatever you like. Then do
cd /
find . | grep -v /mnt | grep -v /proc | cpio -dpmu /mnt
You should be able to edit your lilo.conf to point to the new drive,
then run lilo, then boot the new drive. This has worked for me, but I
may have left something out, so check the man pages and THINK before
you act.

How long does it take to fill up a 64k code+data segment? Now
how long does it take to fill up a 4gb code+data segment? I'm
sure that one of the days we'll see programs that are larger
than this, but it may not be for a couple of year yet. If we
can live with a maximum of 4gb of space per program (that's 4
times the current limitation, 2 times if you do kernel hacks)
the kernel will be the only entity that needs to worry about
segment+offset addresses.
segment+offset addresses are a bit of a pain, but if you're
programming in a higher level language they certainly aren't more of
a pain than the 68ks separate address and data registers were.

And recertify. So you'll lose three months doing the certification,
but your competitors will gladly stand down and not take advantage
of you being out of the market.

Subject: Installing Eterm via RPM and libc.so.6 (ARRRGH!)
Date: Sat, 20 Mar 1999 01:55:18 +1100
A few moments ago I reached a point where frustration overcame my ability to
think clearly, and I removed a symbolic link:
/lib/libc.so.6 -> /lib/libc.so.7
Needless to say my system is now stuffed until I can boot from a floppy and
restore it.
I have spent the last several hours trying to get Eterm (that nifty xterm)
to work, and BOY am I frustrated!!! *stress*
I've been trying to do this via RPM's on a RedHat system. I was slowly
building up the RPM's necessary (WHY on GOD's earth do redhat bother sending
out their distribution if all the gtk, glib, imlib, libungif etc packages
are outdated before they are even shipped???). I reached the point where I
was receiving an error message similar to this:
Failed dependancies:
libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) is required by glib10...
I've not seen this failed dependancy before after many other attempts at
getting eterm to work so I don't know why its suddenly popped up now. I went
and grabbed the necessary glibc rpm from rufus.w3.org. I tried to install it
and got a lot of junk about conflicts so I did a --force.
Guess what.... The link between /lib/libc.so.6 STILL points to
/lib/libc.so.7 EVEN THOUGH the glibc6 RPM was supposed to install
/lib/libc.so.6 (this is where I lost my ability to reason and removed the
link).
The www.eterm.org web site casually describes how to get eterm working. They
say to grab the src.rpm for imlib and install that. When I did this mine
failed, saying that it required imlib (What the HELL?).
Does anyone know WHY I can't install the eterm src rpm EVEN though I have
all the other RPM's installed?
In short, I am extremely frustrated with the whole RPM deal. Is it just me,
or are RPM's a complete and utter farce?
*extreme stress*

NT sees everything as a SCSI device, even IDE hard disks...
Could you be more precise about the cd-rom model? Linux supports several old
proprietary drives, maybe yours is one of them.

I would use Ghost for this kind of job. This program will clone the old HD
into the new one in about 5 minutes. It even resizes automatically the
partitions in the case the new HD is bigger than the old one. A real jewel!

I found the following patch on a German newsgroup. It would be nice if
it were included in the official version of linux...:
In ~linux/drivers/sound/sb_common.c, on line 778 (my be different for
2.2.x):
if (hw_config->dma2 == -1)
devc->dma16 = devc->dma8;
- else if (hw_config->dma2 < 5 || hw_config->dma2 > 7)
+ else if (hw_config->dma2 < 0 || hw_config->dma2 > 7)
{
printk ("SB16: Bad or missing 16 bit DMA channel\n");
devc->dma16 = devc->dma8;

Date: 19 Mar 1999 13:55:33 GMT
Thanks to both Kyle and Lance.
I got the zip drive working finally, using kernel 2.2.3.
I was using the 250MB disk supplied by iomega. It was partitioned and
preformatted. So it was not a problem with the disk as Lance suggested.
I also had the scsi device files setup in /dev (/dev/sda*, /dev/sdb* etc).
So it could only be the driver problem.
I got linux kernel 2.2.3 from www.linuxhq.com and compiled it. It has
a more recent version of imm driver (0.2x) as opposed to the 0.18
I was using with kernel 2.0.36. I got the 0.18 version from
http://www.torque.net/~campbell
But I don't think you should get imm v0.18. Kernel 2.2.3 has in-built
support for imm 0.2. I mean, you can select imm support while configuring
the kernel.
It took me 3-4 kernel compiles to get everything right. For my micron
millennia pc with pentium II 450, I had to select the following:
general setup -> parallel port support (parport.o),
pc style hardware support (parport_pc.o)
scsi -> scsi support, scsi disk support
Elsewhere, it had an option for ppa or imm drivers. I selected imm.
The kernel probes the parallel port while booting. To do this and detect
the port type correctly, it needs parport.o and parport_pc.o precompiled
into the kernel. They should not be modules.
Then imm driver (also compiled into the kernel) detected the drive correctly.
The disk was assigned to sda and the partition check identified sda4
as expected for windows formatted zip disk.
Another tip, kernel 2.2.3 was too big to be make a zImage file even though
I selected minimal support. You can save a few minutes if you do
make bzImage instead of make zImage.

have you tried running sndconfig? I'm not sure that slackware has it, but
I assume it does as well.

Date: 19 Mar 1999 14:01:16 GMT
Hello Folks!!!
I need someone's help.
My soundcard is working fine, I am running a P-166 /w Red Hat Linux 5.2
installed.
I have OPL-SA3 intergrated sound card but can only configure it using
Sound Blaster drivers with the following configuration :
IRQ=5
DMA=1 (at least one of the DMAs)
IO=220
I can play wav files without a problems.....MIDIs too...
Only one problem : I cannot play ANY audio CDs....they play all
right...but no music comes out of my speakers... Anyone have ANY tips?
Thanks a whole bunch
Eric

Just noticed this. When I quit xwindows I've noticed that programs I may
have been running will still be running, taking up memory. Is this
normal for X? Or am I just too spoiled by windows shutting down most
programs?
Thanks,
-K-

Well, that has very little to do with the above, and a LOT to do with
hardware. Make sure you have the little cable that runs from your CD
player to your soundcard. The Synth stuff on the soundcard isn't used
for playing CD's: the CD is just told to start playing, and the sound
card is used as an pre-amplifier and mixer.
