This -driver supports the SoundBlaster, SB Pro, Pro Audio Spectrum 16, -AdLib and Gravis UltraSound sound cards. - -In addition there is rather limited support for MPU-401 -(and compatible) midi cards.

It's possible if /dev/dsp is opened before /dev/sequencer - but at this time the GUS is not available for access via /dev/sequencer. - This is a limitation of the driver. -- MPU-401 driver hangs the computer on boot if there is no MPU-401 installed. - It uses by default the I/O port 0x330, which is also used by the - Adaptec 1542 SCSI adapter. -- The /dev/sequencer playback to GUS sounds sometimes rather weird. Hitting - ^C and playing again should solve this problem. This is probably caused by - incompatibilities between the GUS and certain VLB motherboards. Try to avoid - switching between VTs while patches are being loaded to the GUS. -- There is a skeleton of the patch manager support. It doesn't work in - this version. |
