I'm not a subscriber to this list, so I'd appreciate receiving a direct response if anyone would like to help me.

I'm having a little trouble getting my OPTi 925 PnP working under OSS Free.

After setting up its resources with isapnptools, I noticed at boot that OSS was loading the ad1848 and uart401 modules, so I set about trying to configure them in /etc/conf.modules:

alias sound ad1848
alias midi uart401
options ad1848 io=0x0220 irq=5 dma=0 dma2=1
options uart401 io=0x300 irq=9

The uart module loads up just fine, but I get an error with the ad1848 at boot:
/lib/modules/preferred/misc/ad1848.0: init_module: Device or resource busy
sound: device or resource busy

In fact, if I remove all sound modules, and try to load in the ad1848 with modprobe, I get the same error.

But /cat/proc/interrupts / dma / ioports don't show any
conflcts. These are the same resources used by the card in Win98 on
the same machine. Am I missing something? I'm not sure of the syntax for the conf.modules file. I lifted it from another machine using an SB16.
