	Hey, you were right.  The new sound driver simply doesn't support
menuconfig.  Now all I have to do is go through the 100 or so
possibilities for IRQ, DMA and I/O settings!

	In defense of Linux, at least when you get it working, you can find out
what your settings are.  I printed out all the IRQ, DMA, I/O info from
Win95, but it lists an IRQ, two DMA's and half a dozen I/O ports as
belonging to Yamaha OLP-SAx Sound System.  Be more specific Bill!
