Re: Sound Config Probs
I guess the post 2.0 kernels handle this differently.
I know that if you use 2.0.3x the isapnp runs AFTER
the kernel inits built-in's but BEFORE modules are
loaded. The best thing would be for the driver to do
the pnp stuff itself which is how (I think) it happens
in windows. I'll have to revist this sound config
stuff when I move to 2.2.1x (I'm waiting for 2.2.13
since 2.2.12 STILL has some bad bugs in it. Come on
Allen!)
