AWE64 Setup Solution...



To those trying to get their AWE64 working:

1) Since the 64 is pnp, the card must be initiallized before the
kernel tries to initialize the driver.  This means you must use
something like isapnp to initialize the card and you must build the
sound driver as a _module_ so that you can initialize the card BEFORE
loading the driver

2) The dump from isapnp does not fully detect everything you need in
you isapnp.conf file.  Try modifying my config file.  Most important
is the IO 1 and IO 2 lines at the end.  They are not detected by
pnpdump.  This will allow the kernel to detect the AWE
