Hello!

  For floppy troubles, please look at
http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/96/1999/9/50, thread
"Sound + floppy port lockups: Fixed!".

  There is proposed solution by Alan Cox for kernel sound drivers:

--cut here--
The kernel sound code disables and enables the DMA controller momentarily
when reading the byte count. This is how it should be done but trips
some boards - ALSA doesnt (which breaks some different boards [sigh])

If I am right then building a kernel with PCI_QUIRKS enabled and with
drivers/pci/quirks.c edited to read

     int isa_dma_bridge_buggy = 1;           /* Exported */

     (instead of 0)


it ought to work
--cut here--

  BTW: Proposed long-term solution is to add a module parameter to switch
isa_dma_bridge_buggy in case of DMA troubles.


        Uros.
