Hello. I just tried compiling/installing the 0.2.0-pre2 ALSA driver with
my notebook (which has an OPL3-SAx or the YMF715(B?) soundchip). At first
I get complaints about init_module and snd already being in use, and tried
pnpdump/isapnptools. But this chip is actually not in PnP mode. My laptop
has specific configuration settings for the audio chip in the BIOS (all
the addresses, DMAs and the one IRQ). BIOS even has an option to "lock"
the settings so that they cannot be changed. I tried changing it back to
"Auto" mode (PnP?) with no success; pnpdump doesn't find any isapnp
devices.

So I am guessing that this chip is already configured when I bootup. I
specified the port/dma/irq settings as described in the INSTALL text by
placing the correct lines in conf.modules (I don't have the lines with me,
sorry.) This seems to have little effect. I still get the two "resource"
errors. Sorry I don't have a little more detailed information at the
moment ... just wondering if this rings a bell with anyone. I read through
all the docs but can't seem to find the solution...

Thanks in advance,
William Jhun
