It did complain about it after noticing that the version number was more than could be expected for a plain jane sb classic. 2) I also had to wrap adintr in soundcard.c with #if defined(CONFIG_AD1848). 3) I went through local.h and defined CONFIG_SBPRO & CONFIG_SB16 in an effort to get the card going. Upon compilation there were heaps of errors in sb16_dsp.c, mostly relating to IMODE_NONE, DSP_DATA_AVL16, IMODE_OUTPUT & IMODE_INPUT being undefined. I guess this means that it has to be converted over, right? 4) The sound output seems very clicky - i.e. you can hear the gaps between writes using the NAS server, which you don't on the old driver. Some comments - are we going to fix things up so that the sb16 devices will be picked up automagically like they were before (and how do we do this)? Has anyone done all this work for the PAS16 (which I may be trying next) Stephen -- I do not speak for the Worker's Compensation Board of Queensland - They don't pay me enough for that!
