   Never mind the jumpers.  Does it work in DOS ?   If it does, then see what:
"set" returns in the BLASTER variable, and use those settings when insmod -ing
sb.o

   Probably.

   That is a complicated way of doing what I wrote above.  I did the same 
thing
when I was trying to get the Vibra16 to work - it found the variable values 
OK,
but it didn't help in that case.

   This is a hardware matter, and what works with DOS will work with BL2 and 
bare-i.

Regards,
         Ron
