Hi Fabio,

tested the new module and it - kind of - works. I did a "echo options snd-nm256
reset_workaround=1 > /etc/modprobe.conf".  Problem is that there is a click of
about 10HZ. I somehow think the problem is that this machine has too much
cramped on the same interrupt.

root at voyager:~ # cat /proc/interrupts
           CPU0
  0:     991949          XT-PIC  timer
  1:       2337          XT-PIC  i8042
  2:          0          XT-PIC  cascade
  3:       2669          XT-PIC  orinoco_cs

 10:      11142          XT-PIC  uhci_hcd, yenta, eth0, NM256AV
 12:      57476          XT-PIC  i8042
 14:      26214          XT-PIC  ide0
NMI:          0
LOC:          0
ERR:          0
MIS:          0

I first just renamed the original module but left it in /lib/modules.  This I
think resulted in loading the original module instead of the new one.  So on
next reboot in single-user-mode I hit ctrl-c while hotplug was loading the
modules and ended up with a system which did not have anything mapped on INT 10.
 Then I moved the original module out of /lib/modules, ran "depmod -a; modprobe
snd-nm256; telinit 3" and got a clear sound (but of course no wireless as e.g.
yenta was not loaded).

Is there a way to force nm256 to use another interrupt or am I on the wrong
track here anyway?
