MPU-401 driver
- Comments:
- I know relatively little about this board, but Orchid is
reportedly working on improving its OS/2 support. The above ftp
site reportedly contains drivers which enable the board's SoundBlaster
emulation under OS/2, allowing the user to use OS/2's
SoundBlaster drivers. I don't know what happens with wavetable
sound using this option, though I've received one report that IBM's
MPU-401 driver does work with this board.
