ooh, ooh, I just got it working, (and yes I was the one who wrote this
original question).

This is still true as of right now.

this was incorrect, it was pcmcia, as I was in my car at the time, with
pcmcia shut off, so this should have read.
2) running oss with pcmcia stopped ; works great;
> > > What drivers?
the oss drivers, opensound.com (osslinux393k-2215-UP.tar.gz)
Here's the latest...
debian 2.2.15
The problem is in the BIOS configuration for pc cards
oddly enough I made this change:
ACPI BIOS v1.20
CONFIGURATION
Device Config. = All Devices
PC CARD
Controller Mode = CardBus/16-bit
---
pcmcia is running, and I can issue 'soundon' and no system lockups, I have
now tried all sorts of combinations to make sure this is true, and I am
fairly confident, now that I've been listening to xmms under x for about 1
hour without a single glitch, that it is running a-ok.
Thanks to all who got me on my way. the dmesg email in particular was
helpful as it gave me the irq sharing violations, and at least a means to
correct it.
