| This loads the driver for the Sound Blaster and assorted clones. Cards that | |
| are covered by other drivers should not be using this driver. | |
| The Sound Blaster module takes the following arguments | |
| io I/O address of the Sound Blaster chip (0x220,0x240,0x260,0x280) | |
| irq IRQ of the Sound Blaster chip (5,7,9,10) | |
| dma 8-bit DMA channel for the Sound Blaster (0,1,3) | |
| dma16 16-bit DMA channel for SB16 and equivalent cards (5,6,7) | |
| mpu_io I/O for MPU chip if present (0x300,0x330) | |
| sm_games=1 Set if you have a Logitech soundman games | |
| acer=1 Set this to detect cards in some ACER notebooks | |
| mwave_bug=1 Set if you are trying to use this driver with mwave (see on) | |
| type Use this to specify a specific card type | |
| The following arguments are taken if ISAPnP support is compiled in | |
| isapnp=0 Set this to disable ISAPnP detection (use io=0xXXX etc. above) | |
| multiple=0 Set to disable detection of multiple Soundblaster cards. | |
| Consider it a bug if this option is needed, and send in a | |
| report. | |
| pnplegacy=1 Set this to be able to use a PnP card(s) along with a single | |
| non-PnP (legacy) card. Above options for io, irq, etc. are | |
| needed, and will apply only to the legacy card. | |
| reverse=1 Reverses the order of the search in the PnP table. | |
| uart401=1 Set to enable detection of mpu devices on some clones. | |
| isapnpjump=n Jumps to slot n in the driver's PnP table. Use the source, | |
| Luke. | |
| You may well want to load the opl3 driver for synth music on most SB and | |
| clone SB devices | |
| insmod opl3 io=0x388 | |
| Using Mwave | |
| To make this driver work with Mwave you must set mwave_bug. You also need | |
| to warm boot from DOS/Windows with the required firmware loaded under this | |
| OS. IBM are being difficult about documenting how to load this firmware. | |
| Avance Logic ALS007 | |
| This card is supported; see the separate file ALS007 for full details. | |
| Avance Logic ALS100 | |
| This card is supported; setup should be as for a standard Sound Blaster 16. | |
| The driver will identify the audio device as a "Sound Blaster 16 (ALS-100)". |
