Hello fellow Debian users, I recently switched from Redhat 6.2 to Debian 2.2 (potato). I finally got all my hardware (and software) up and running nicely, with the exception of my sound card. I have a Creative Labs Soundblaster 16. The card works fine under Windows 98. I went into the Windows control panel and printed out a system resource report. My sound card is located on IRQ 10. As for the I/O ports, I got the following results:
0220h-022Fh Sound Blaster 16 PCI Legacy Device 0320h-032Fh Sound Blaster 16 PCI Legacy Device 0388h-038Bh Sound Blaster 16 PCI Legacy Device FF00h-FF3Fh Creative Sound Blaster 16 PCI It also says I have the Microsoft MPU Audio Driver (WDM) on 0330h-0331h. Under the DMA Channel Usage Summary it says (among other things) 01 Sound Blaster 16 PCI Legacy Device 07 Sound Blaster 16 PCI Legacy Device So now I'm totally confused as to how to set up my card in Linux. I ran sndconfig but when I go to set the resource settings, I can't seem to get the right combination. It doesn't even list FF00h as one of the I/O port addresses as an option. I'm guessing I'm going to have to manually configure the card. Can somebody help me out by telling me what modules I need to load, and what config files I need to modify, and what lines I need to add? I've never had to manually configure a sound card before. Just as a side note, when I used Redhat 6.2, I ran sndconfig and chose the es1371 sound module and the card worked without me even having to configure anything (I sort of stumbled on this by accident -- I just tried different cards until I found one that worked). If somebody could help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Casey
