Can you detect your card using pnpdump? eg. # pnpdump|grep ANSI ANSI string -->Creative SB AWE64 PnP<-- ANSI string -->Audio<-- ANSI string -->Game<-- ANSI string -->WaveTable<-- If your card is soundblaster compatible, you should be able to use it using the standard sb module (from recent 2.1.* kernels). If your card is not pnp you can try using the 'default' IRQ and DMA settings: irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 -Michele
