Yes I think I have the same problem with a Soundblaster 16 card. I compiled
sound in the kernel (no module) and while booting I get the message
"cannot allocate DMA buffer". System has an Adaptec 2940 controller. For
reference I include the output of /dev/sndstat:

Sound Driver:3.7-beta4-961021 (Sun Oct 27 14:16:36 MET 1996 root,

and the relevant output of dmesg:

[]

Sound initialization started
<Sound Blaster 16 (4.13)> at 0x220 irq 7 dma 1,5

Sound initialization complete

AHA-2940 (PCI-bus), I/O 0xd400, Mem 0xffbef000:


I think it is no conflict with my SCSI controller as suggested in the docs?!

Any help would be great
