I got problems with my sound cards... :-( i've tried to get my SB
64 to work but the problem is that when i load the modules the kernel
loads'em for the CMI8330 Audio adapter(it's on my mainboard) because it's
"Sound Blaster 16 compatible" (yeah right) and then the SB doesn't work
because of the CMI :-(
I then compiled the modules for the MSS/WSS i planed to put the CMI in
its WSS compatible mode so if i loaded the modules for SB i was hopping
that the SB 64 would now work because the CMI was "busy" in his WSS mode,
i did all that, when i load WSS modules the CMI works, but when i load the
SB modules the SB 64 doesn't work and the CMI does :-(...
I was told that in 2.0.xx kernels you could have two sound
cards if they are in different i/o ports... well the CMI in WSS mode uses
io=0x530 irq=11 dma=0 and when i try the SB modules i put io=0x220 dma=1
dma16=5 irq=5 they are using different settings then why the CMI is the
only to work, is it because the CMI is in the mainboard ???
I also tried to look in the bios configuration for something that would
disable the CMI but i didn't find something or i got no idea how would be
the option in bios to disable the CMI ??? What can i do ???
BTW i read in linux/drivers/sound/Readme.cards that you could have two
sound cards SB but you had to put defines for SB2_IRQ, SB2_DMA.... in
local.h where is that file ???!!!! i didn't find it, tried manually and
with find /usr/src/linux -name "local.h" -print but got nothing
Hope these question doesn't bothers anyone and that someone can lend a
hand on the matter
