Hi,

I have a genuine Creative Sound Blaster OEM PnP (Vibra 16XV chip). I can
configure it ok using isapnp, but both the DMA channels are 8 bits (windows
uses 0 and 3.

Any idea what gives with these beasts? The sound driver compains about the
16bit DMA channel, but xquake and kmix work fine.

Jon.
