I posted a Oops with 2.1.87 earlier. I have a gravis ultrasound MAX
and I'm using the Ultrasound Driver,
http://home.pf.jcu.cz/~perex/ultra/ nice driver and it takes more
advantage of the card. With the 2.1.x series I don't go in X and I
don't load the sound driver, so it can't be either of them. Since I'm
using SCSI and others are using IDE I would assume it isn't in either
low-level driver either.
