well, that makes 3 of us then. What error message do you get? mine says something about synthesizer 8000 not presant, then it says isa PnP failed, device lot found at 0x62 or something like that. I can't
get alsa to work on anything.

Hello,
I tried to build and install ALSA 0.9.4. Everything went OK until I tried to insert sbawe module into kernel. Modprobe said:
/lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/snd-sbawe.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/snd-sbawe.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/snd-sbawe.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/snd-sbawe.o: insmod snd-sbawe failed
(etc)
After having fought a couple of hours too many with the same problem, I found a kind of temporary solution. I don't much care about AWE synth under Linux because wavetable can easily be done with software without too much CPU overhead. So, it seems the following hack can be used to load SB AWE card as a SB16 (which, as far as I know, should be about the same, only without AWE):
Edit sb16.c (in <alsa-source>/alsa-kernel/isa/sb) and comment out the wavetable detection thing:
<clip, lines 503-508>
/*if (snd_emu8000_new(card, 1, awe_port[dev],
seq_ports[dev], NULL) < 0) {
snd_printk(KERN_ERR PFX "fatal error - EMU-8000 synthesizer not
detected at 0x%lx\n", awe_port[dev]);
snd_card_free(card);
return -ENXIO;
}*/</clip>
Recompie. Now snd-sbawe should load with modprobe perfectly, except that everyone seems to think the card is a SB16 (=> no wavetable synth).
Anyone out there who can actually do something to this? It would be really nice to have the modules work out-of-the-box, especially if you happen to be a newbie user.
