Re: AWE64 Configuration...
Hello!
I don't really know what the problem with your config is, but I can tell you
it'll probably work fine if you compile the drivers as modules (don't forget
to give the parameters you've set in isapnp.conf to them). But I guess the
problem with your config is, that the driver initializes first, and then you
change the adresses etc. of your pnp hardware via isapnp. I'd try once with
an empty isapnp.conf file - maybe it works then.
Regards,
Stephan
P.S.: As for myself, I also use alsa, because I've now got a new pci card
which doesn't work with oss drivers.
