I got 4.1-STABLE on it with no problems, after fighting/playing the free I/O space/free IRQ game I finally got my wavelan/wired ethernet working (and let me tell you what, finding a free interrupt on this puppy was not a task, I'm completely out now with the 1 I have given to pcmcia, and could re-gain one by putting the pcmcia controller into polling mode if I so desired). Anyway, everything works great. Sound even worked right out of the box (well after I rebuilt the kernel turning on PCM). The card is recognized as pcm0: port 0xfc8c-0xfc8f,0xfcc0-0xfcff mem 0xfedf8000-0xfedfffff irq 9 at device 9.0 on pci0 and works very well. I have managed to get EVERYTHING working except for one little nuisance. I am unable to use the sound card after a suspend. Under Linux I had the same problem, but it was easy to correct by unloading the sound module before suspending, and reloading it after the suspend (since this card is only supported well under the commercial OSS anyway). Of course under linux, you have to also disable the sound card to eject a pcmcia card, or else the machine hangs. FreeBSD at least doesn't exhibit this behaviour. So the question is, I am sure to fix this the card just needs re-initialized. But how would I go about doing that since it's built into the kernel? Any ideas?
