Yes, a lot of modern soundcards include an IDE controller, that is usually 
configured with PnP.  Also, my current network card (a 3Com 3c509) is also ISA 
PnP.  I had to move it by hand to the non-PnP mode in order to use it with 
Linux.

Yes, again.  I recall somebody else asking about getting info from Window$ for 
a similar purpose (monitor configuration, I think).  The problem there could 
be the copyright of that information, that probably belongs to MS or their 
partners.  I would be a good idea to find out about that before proceeding.

Is that Tom Lees' patch?  I'll give it a try these days just to see if it is 
suitable for this purpose.
