Sound



I'm having a little problem with my sound.  I've got it working fine on
one laptop (Gateway Solo 2500 running RH6.2), but on the second laptop
(same model running woody) it's flaked out.  I think it has to do with my
IO ports.  I've compiled everything as modules, so at boot up:

modprobe mpu401
modprobe ad1848
modprobe opl3sa2 io=0x370 mss_io=0x530 mpu_io=0x330 irq=5 dma=0 dma2=1
modprobe opl3 io=0x388

However, on the Debian system, this isn't working.  (The two laptops are
identical in hardware configuration -- I've had sound working on Linux
before on both laptops.)  XMMS will grab the first second of an mp3 and
just keep repeating it.  The modules all load just fine, and there are no
interrupt conflicts.  mss_io will /only/ load at 0x530.

The reason I say that I think it's the IO ports is because of this section
of my /proc/ioports:

0530-0533 : WSS config
0534-0537 : MS Sound System

I'm trying to assign mss_io (the MS Sound System) to port 530, but there's
something called WSS config that wants that port.  Am I reading this
correctly?

How do I go about reserving port 530 so that it'll be available for use?
