This may seem like a silly question, but do I need isapnp
running every time I boot? Here is the situation. I have 3 PnP ISA
cards, a modem, SB AWE32 and RTL8019 ethernet card. I installed RH6
first off, and manually configed my 'net card, started linux and
everything worked fine. Telent, ftp, netscape, all going good, then,
however, I discovered that there was no sound. Well, off to sndconfig
I went, and from there, my first exposure to isapnp. Sndconfig ran,
but produced errors when it hit my 'net card, and bombed out. However,
to my delight, sound now works. Okay , the 'net card and sound card are
working, but upon boot, isapnp produces * looking red [FAILED] messages,
but the boot goes on anyways. After this the sound and 'net card still
work, so, is isapnp a "handy little extra" or one of those vital things
best left untouched? Thanks for your help guys ....
