Hi,
many thanks for your quick reply! Here's some more info:

Mandrake Control Center recognices the card as follows (partly in 
german, sorry, but perhaps that's no problem in ERL/NUE ;-) ):

Hersteller: Fortemedia, Inc
Bus: PCI
Bus: 1319:801:1319:1319
Standort auf den Bus: 0:b:0
Beschreibung: Xwave QS3000A [FM801]
Modul: snd-fm801
Medienklasse: MULTIMEDIA_AUDIO

I had no alsa installed while running hardware detection.

The soundcard is working correctly under win98 without the need to 
change any hardware or bios settings.
win98 reports:
fm801 pci audio, IRQ 10, I/O: EC00-EC7F
plus
fm801 pci audio, IRQ 11
and 'no conflicts'. I.e. win98 shows up the same IRQs used as lspci, 
that should be correct, then. But lspci doesn't name any memory regions 
used by this card. Do you have any idea what I could try? (I'll test 
some other bios settings, mounting the card in another slot when I find 
some spare time).

TIA
fe
