hi all I use a i810 intel chipset.Every time I boot in Linux and try to play a song in XMMS, it says sound card may be blocked.Now if I do rmmod on my sound card driver module(i810_audio) sometimes the response is "device or resource busy" or "interrupt 12 used by 2 devices sound card and smbus controller setting latency timer to 64 for the bus controller".when the latter happens my XMMS begins to work. what does the above mean and how do I overcome it? thanks regards GP -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
