i'm quoting from your original post: Now, this [ac97] is incompatible with the original Soundblaster stuff and no one seems to care to deal with the incompatibilities. That's where so, someone (cinap) does care about the incompatabilities and has addressed them. i think what you're saying is nobody has gotten this in to the distribution. fair point. why don't you submit a patch? - erik
