The AWE32 code is from Takashi Iwai (iwai@dragon.mm.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
and one of the TODO items is '- can't detect DRAM size on some cards'.
The version in the kernel is from Sept 1997.

See http://bahamut.mm.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~iwai/awedrv/ for info on how
to report problems to its author and some links on the hardware programming
if you want to work on it.
