Hi all,

I've got a SB 16 circa 1995 (still got the old Mashusita CD on it, no IDE), and
it unpredictably hangs my machine when I play sound through it.  The system is a
dual PPro (Tyan Tomcat S1668) MB, with 80MB of RAM, S3 Virge display running
2.0.33.  I've had this problem running 2.0.32 as well, using both the OSS free
drivers and ALSA (0.10 and 0.13).  I normally see it when playing MP3's, but
only because that's the sound app I use most.  I've had it go down once or twice
when just playing a short wav using wavplay(?).

The machine just freezes up solid, and I have to reset or cycle power to get it
going again.  Interrupts or IO address is a possibility, but I used to have a SB
1.5 at the same IRQ and IO (SB standard 220, 7) that was rock solid under the
OSS free drivers.

Any ideas, or should I fiddle my jumpers?

Thanx
Reinier Mostert
