Sound: a plea for help

Hi guys.  I have been trying for a long time to get my Awe 64 running
under SuSE 6.1.

I have compiled the kernel with sound support but get action not
suported by device messages whenever I try to cat a sound file to
/dev/sound or /dev/dsp.  Something is still wrong.  I have read all
howtos but still can't work it out.  The output from cat /dev/sndstat is
below.  Could it be a isapnp type problem, I haven't set that up yet?

Any help greatly appreciated, 
Jason.

Try the OSS package that came with SuSE. I used it to install my SB 16 PNP.
Check the documentation to see if your card is supported. Then follow the
install directions. I know for mine i had to recompile the kerrnel with no
sound support and isapnp disabled.

I think the default for MPU irq was -1

This may disable or set to emulate mpu but anyway it worked for me.
