5 | This loads the driver for the Sound Blaster and assorted clones. Cards that | |
6 | are covered by other drivers should not be using this driver. | |
7 | ||
8 | The Sound Blaster module takes the following arguments | |
9 | ||
10 | io I/O address of the Sound Blaster chip (0x220,0x240,0x260,0x280) | |
11 | irq IRQ of the Sound Blaster chip (5,7,9,10) | |
12 | dma 8-bit DMA channel for the Sound Blaster (0,1,3) | |
13 | dma16 16-bit DMA channel for SB16 and equivalent cards (5,6,7) | |
14 | mpu_io I/O for MPU chip if present (0x300,0x330) | |
15 | ||
16 | sm_games=1 Set if you have a Logitech soundman games | |
17 | acer=1 Set this to detect cards in some ACER notebooks | |
18 | mwave_bug=1 Set if you are trying to use this driver with mwave (see on) | |
19 | type Use this to specify a specific card type | |
20 | ||
21 | The following arguments are taken if ISAPnP support is compiled in | |
22 | ||
23 | isapnp=0 Set this to disable ISAPnP detection (use io=0xXXX etc. above) | |
24 | multiple=0 Set to disable detection of multiple Soundblaster cards. | |
25 | Consider it a bug if this option is needed, and send in a | |
26 | report. | |
27 | pnplegacy=1 Set this to be able to use a PnP card(s) along with a single | |
28 | non-PnP (legacy) card. Above options for io, irq, etc. are | |
29 | needed, and will apply only to the legacy card. | |
30 | reverse=1 Reverses the order of the search in the PnP table. | |
31 | uart401=1 Set to enable detection of mpu devices on some clones. | |
32 | isapnpjump=n Jumps to slot n in the driver's PnP table. Use the source, | |
33 | Luke. | |

35 | You may well want to load the opl3 driver for synth music on most SB and | |
36 | clone SB devices | |
37 | ||
38 | insmod opl3 io=0x388 | |
39 | ||
40 | Using Mwave | |
41 | ||
42 | To make this driver work with Mwave you must set mwave_bug. You also need | |
43 | to warm boot from DOS/Windows with the required firmware loaded under this | |
44 | OS. IBM are being difficult about documenting how to load this firmware. | |

46 | Avance Logic ALS007 | |
47 | ||
48 | This card is supported; see the separate file ALS007 for full details. | |
49 | ||
50 | Avance Logic ALS100 | |
51 | ||
52 | This card is supported; setup should be as for a standard Sound Blaster 16. | |
53 | The driver will identify the audio device as a "Sound Blaster 16 (ALS-100)". |
