This is only partially true.

On the SB's I know, 0x330 is the base for Midi. > I have been working with an SB16 PnP for a while now, and now an SB Awe64. > So I can say that it works as long as you have a PnP bios. Hope this at > least can clarify some things. The Awe cards are a good example for partially initialization by PnP BIOS. The pcm devices work, but for the Awe driver patch to work, isapnptools is a must (at least with my Bios. Maybe there are newer, better bios'es available).
