I thought you needed to insmod v_midi before sb module would even load, 
whether or not you are doing midi.  Does sb load for you without v_midi?

Do you need to use the bare.i kernel as well?

Do you mean you installed devs.tgz to create devices, and then you copied 
them to your sound package?

That was probably my script you are referring to.  Ron told me he 
installed the devs.tgz package.  sb.o does not make the sound devices 
correctly and therefore you need to add them (by installing devs.tgz, 
running the script that comes with it to make devices, or using your own 
script or typing out mknod with relevant numbers). patmgr was listed as 
one of the sound devices in my book.  I put all the sound devices in the 
script but the book said that in order to play sounds you need only dsp, 
audio and mixer.  I have no idea what patmgr does.  sndstat provides 
information about the sound card.

I will try your sound package as soon as Steven finishes the latest BL3.
Thanks.
