What is the output of "lsmod"? It sounds
like you have gameport or
another driver claiming the MPU port before snd-mpu401 gets loaded.
hmmm
lsmod show gameport with the ens1371 (an oldie but goody I found n the trash
and put in to have SOMETHING for audio for the Linux--my dman2044 is not
supported. Under windows, eht ens1371 has a wave table GS-subset as well.)
Since I do not use the gameport, how might I disable it and see if this was
blocking the mpu401?
Actually, I have no mpu401 device. The target is another oldie, a Yamaha
sw60xg ISA card which is simply an XG sound generator. It sits on a port, no
IRQ, no DMA, no PNP, nada. The system does not know it's there, not Windows,
not Linux. When W2k came out and Yamaha had no driver for the card, they
recommended using the W2K mpu401 driver until. So I tried this with Linux and
it has worked 100% until 2.6.12.
