Hi,

I've found my problem I hadn't loaded modules in correct sequence so now
ppa works fine,  however I now have a problem
with my ess1868 sound card not working anymore.  I've read the howto my
isapnp.conf is set correctly but when I try to load sb via coas
it fails to load if I try using lisa I get the error that it can't find the
module sb.o if I do a find on sb.o it's on my system.
Now what do I have to do to get this card working again.
irq5, port 0x220,dma 1, mpu_io 0x338, opl3 io 0x330
any help much appreciated....
tia
