Re: Getting sound to work
Oh, sorry, I changed the subject line by mistake although the thread was the
same... so this is a double-posting.

No, it's esstype=foo irq=foo dma=foo io=foo

Hmm, it seems to find no isa pnp board... that's quite strange... Maybe the
card is really attached to PCI; please try to find out about that by looking
at the properties of the sound devices once more... at least at my win2000
box the dialog tells me three lines of information for the device: device
type, manufacturer and location of the device; the third line could contain
something interesting. If you find out nothing that way... could you open
your PC or is there a guarantee seal on it which prevents you from opening?
If you are able to take a look into it, you can see what kind of sound card
is in there:
-If the sound output connector is on the mainboard, it's a on board card.
-If the card behind the output connector is in a black slot, it's an ISA
card.
-If it's in a white slot, it's a PCI card.
-When was your machine built?
I think we won't get any further by this isapnp stuff, but if we won't get
it to work, you can still try out another kind of sound driver, alsa. But
let's still try with this normal solution for some time as alsa may be a
little difficult to install.
Cheers,
Stephan
