Does anyone know anything about the PCI128? I can get
sound out of this board with modprobe 1370 (not 1371?
is the 128 inferior to the 64?), but the drivers
that come with the kernel seem to get a lot of DMA
timeouts, and programs often seem to hang trying to
open /dev/dsp (don't receive TERM, either, only KILL),
after which nothing can use sound... so I guess the
chip isn't identical.

ALSA drivers for AudioPCI seem to work pretty well, though.
