Redhat & AWE 32 PnP

Ok, I've asked questions concerning this issue before and I've read through
about all the howto's and README files there is on my box about that issue
but I still CAN'T GET MY SB AWE32 PnP to work. I'm clueless of what it could
be.
Here's a short explanation of what happens:
--> I install Redhat (5.2/6.0 I've tried both), run sndconfig, gives me an
error with the midi device, I enter my custom isapnp.conf file. --
Everything works.
--> Then I recompile the kernel (2.2.6/2.2.10)to make it smaller, with SB
support and lowlevel drivers for the AWE synth, and all that. I don't change
any settings whatoever in isapnp.conf or conf.modules. Then, whenever I try
to play an mp3 file or whenever I start Quake II, it starts playing the
sound for a second and then my whole machine locks up.

I've tried a thousand things. I switched back to the old kernel and it
worked again. What could that be ? Can anybody help me? I would be happy
even if I only received the default .config file for the kernel, for I could
see what options are enabled and which aren't!

PLEASE HELP ME !!!
Al

Maybe you've enabled an option which needs an IRQ or DMA, the same as your SB.
Try to change the DMA/IRQ/I/O-Adress of your isapnp and in the Kernelconfig.
