Hi all.

I recently picked up an "STB Sound Rage 32 3D", which has an AMD Interwave chip
on it.  It looks quite similar to my gus PNP, except it doesn't have any
simm sockets or IDE port and it's green.

Anyway, I compiled and installed the alsa drivers/lib/utils etc. and then
tried to run "alsa-driver/utils/insert stb" but the interwave-stb module
wouldn't load:

bock# ./insert stb
Remove done...
../modules/snd-interwave-stb.o: init_module: Device or resource busy

hmm...

I wasn't quite sure what was up with that.  So, on a lark, I tried inserting
the standard interwave module, and that went ok.  Alsa thought I had a gus:

bock# cat /proc/asound/cards 
0 [card1          ]: GUS - Gravis UltraSound
                     Gravis UltraSound Plug & Play at 0x220, irq 5, dma 5&6

And it seems to work.  I haven't done much with it yet, but "cat /vmlinuz >
/dev/audio" sounds about right.

So, my question is, is this supposed to happen?  Which cards are supported by
snd-interwave-stb and which by snd-interwave?

Eric
