Re: Configuring soundblaster live value

[lameth <lameth@comcast.net>]

It's a sound blaster live value PCI. lsmod returns

Module        Size    used by    Tainted: P
audio           38432   0 (unused)
emu10k1     55712   1
ac97_codec 9568     0 [emu10k1]
sound          52876   0 [emu10k1]
soundcore   3236     7 [audio emu10k1 sound]

The PnP OS option is off in the bios. Okay the modules are loaded but 
are they configured correctly for the sound card? Should I put io=0x220 
irq=7 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 next to emu10k1 in the /etc/modules file?
