sb.o support in 2.4-broken?

I am using the 2.4.0-test10 kernel. I have a sound blaster 16 which works fine under 2.2.17.

I see that a while back someone posted on this problem previously but there were no answers I can find..

Is support for soundblaster16 ISA broken in the 2.4 kernel? Compiled in or used as a module I can not get it to work. I have passed sb=220,5,1,5 during boot when compiled in and also sent those during insmod.

When I boot to 2.2.17 these are the correct values and sound is happy :)

I am subbed to this group so you may answer here so this is on record.

Thanks much...

What does 2.4.* say Jim?
You have the right modutils installed?
Any error msg?

I have an old SB16 ISA and it works without a problem on 2.4.0-test10. And it hasn't caused me any problems for a very long time :)

I have sound compiled as modules.
My lilo.conf (sound part) looks like this.

path[sound]=/lib/modules/uname -r/kernel/drivers/sound alias sound-service-0-0 opl3
alias sound-slot-0 sb
options sound dmabuf=1
alias midi opl3
options opl3 io=0x388
options sb io=0x220 irq=7 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330

I have no idea if the sound-service-0-0 and sound-slot-0 part is right but it works and dosn't give any errors. I haven't had time to check what service and slot really affects...

Do you get any errors while inserting the modules?
