The solution I found was to use the pcm driver. I'm at work now so I can't give you specific details about where it is or _exactly_ how to implement it, but what I remember is that you need to add a ``device'' line in the kernel config file and re-build the kernel. Also in the config file (or via boot -c) you must disable _all_ the SB stuff (sb0, sbxvi0, sbmidi0, _and_ opl0). The pcm driver (written by Luigi Rizzo, IIRC) handles everything, it even adds M$ Sound System support. The only thing I can't help you with is the joystick, coz I've not got one. If you require more info, e-mail me and I'll check it out this evening (GMT). HTH [dmesg output snipped] -- Trust the computer industry to shorten Year 2000 to Y2K. It was this thinking that caused the problem in the first place. Mark Ovens, CNC Applications Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd. Bath, Avon, England.
