Did you add some entries to your /etc/modules.conf file? I have the
following added to the bottom:
alias sound sb
alias midi awe_wave
post-install awe_wave /usr/bin/sfxload /usr/synthfm.sbk
options sb io=0x240 irq=9 dma=1 dma16=7 mpu_io=0x300
and I do a modprobe sb to get sound going.
Setting up sound has been extremely frustrating, but I managed to get it
going. I've been happily playing CDs since Sunday :)
Also, have you looked at AWE32 and README.awe in the Documentation/Sound
directory? The info they contained (referring to my addition to
/etc/modules.conf) was what I needed to finaly get sound going. I had my
isapnp.conf file and my kernel ready to go, but until I added those four
lines, I couldn't get sound.
