Yes I have /dev/dsp and /dev/audio support compiled into my kernel, and I
believe my sound card is pnp. Isapnp finds it and I made sure it's
configuration is correct. I have an onboard SB16/WSS card. Winbloze
finds two devices, but as far as I know, there is only one sound card.
When I used pnpdump, it found the sound card and one of the setting was
identical to Window's setup of my sb16. I put the correct settings into
the kernel and went to /usr/src/linux-2.0.34/devices/soun and did a make.
Then I did a make dep clean zImage modules modules_install install in
/usr/src/linux-2.0.34, so it should be in the kernel.
