Re: Problems with SB 64 AWE
Hello! Thanks to all who gave me hints so far. I'm going to try them out on Saturday, as I'm very busy now. I'll mail to you if I need further help.

I've got a problem setting up a SB Awe 64 under Linux (kernel 2.2.5). I've compiled the following support into it: Sound Blaster (SB, SBPro, SB16, clones) support (CONFIG_SB) [Y/n/?] Generic OPL2/OPL3 FM synthesizer support (CONFIG_ADLIB) [Y/n/?] /dev/dsp and /dev/audio support (CONFIG_AUDIO) [Y/n/?] MIDI interface support (CONFIG_MIDI) [Y/n/?] FM synthesizer (YM3812/OPL-3) support (CONFIG_YM3812) [Y/n/?] lowlevel sound driver support [Y/n/?] AWE32 support (CONFIG_AWE32_SYNTH) [Y/n/?] (according to the AWE mini howto) and Plug and Play support. I determined the IRQ etc. by looking up the resources in the WIN 95 device manager. But the kernel does not recognize any SB or AWE device. Perhaps I've determined the resources wrongly, but how to get the resource data? It's all ISA plug and pray, and the bios doesn't list much. Maybe someone has already experience with this.

Thanks for any help. Kind Regards, Stephan Hachiger -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null Have you configured isapnptools to set up your Awe on boot? This has to be done before loading modules. You also have to pass the resources info. to the module - for an Awe, the only two you need to pass resources to are sb and opl3. I wouldn't bother with the Adlib module. Get back to me if you need more help (email me direct). I can remember how much of a pain this was when I started with Debian / Linux. Jonathan.
Re: Problems with SB 64 AWE
You probably need to install and/or configure isapnptools to handle the plug 'n pray portion. Most likely you'll need to setup some module parameters as well. I can email you the configuration settings I'm using for both of the above, if you'd like. You'll probably have to adapt them somewhat, but they should give you a pretty close starting point.
