Got also my patched 0.12 freezing system later (kernel 2.4.17). Didn't saw
that earlier with 2.4.17-pre2. Also tried to move port I/O stuff from
__i810_update_lvi() to start_adc() and start_dac() inside if block to
avoid any possibility of doing wait loop when noting is done in start_dac()
and still get system locking up when loading driver. Perhaps I should
recheck with kernel 2.4.17-pre2 (I didn't have problems with it before
leaving to Finland now more than 2 weeks ago)

Kernel 2.4.17 compiled with gcc-2.95.3, devfs is enabled, ext3 filesystem (I
         would prefer not to hang system with ext2, ext3 seems to
        handle that nicely)
XFree86-4.1.99.2 (cvs update -r xf-4_1_99_2 xc; ....)
KDE-2.2.2 release (compiled here with gcc-2.95.3)
Contents of /proc/pci attached

KDE sound server settings:
        Start aRts soundserver on KDE startup - on
        Enable network transperancy - on
        Exchange security and reference info over the X11 server - on
        Run soundserver with realtime priority - off
        Autosuspend if idle for 5 seconds
        Display messages using artsmessage
        Message display: errors

        Sound I/O method: autodetect
        Enable full duplex operation: off
        Use custom sound device: off
        Use custom sampling rate: off
        Other custom options: off
        Audio buffer size: 278 millisoconds (12 fragments with 4096 bytes)

        I have setup to play one wav file from VFAT32 partition at KDE startup

Perhaps I'll look into that in next Year only. It seems I'll have to repeat
enabling debug output from i810_audio driver and to put additional output
there to see where I have the trouble.
