Hi, I am trying to use the soundcard in my laptop. I have the following setup : Dell Latitude XPi P133ST laptop with the following audio specifications : Audio type : Soundblaster Pro-compatible 3.01 Audio controller : ES1888 According to the Dell reference guide, the default resource settings are : DMA channel : 1 IRQ line : 5 Port address : 220h However, if I use Port address 220h for device sb0, the device is not detected. If the Kernel configuration file I have include the following lines : controller snd0 device sb0 at isa? port 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x300 After making and installing the new kernel, I get the following messages when rebooting the machine : sb0 at 0x230 irq 5 drq 1 on isa sb0: <Soundblaster Pro 3.1> sbxvi0 not found sbmidi0 not found at 0x300 After this, I tried to play an audio file by executing : "cat danube.au > /dev/audio" It returns the following error messages : >Sound: DMA timed out - IRQ/DRQ config error? >SoundBlaster: DSP Command(40) Timeout. >IRQ conflict??? It will be of great help if anyone can inform what I am doing wrong here and what will be the apprpriate IRQ/DRQ settings for the above configuration.
