[Nottingham] Soundblaster live and Mandrake 9.0

[Ted]

Hi Steve, I dont use Mandrake either, nor even the Soundblaster live.
I can offer you a couple of suggestions though ...

Try adding cards_limit=1 to the options line for the snd module
in /etc/modules.conf (or wherever Mandrake puts such config stuff)

Is it OK to have these on the same IRQ?
Are these the same as they were before you upgraded?
