I did it *somehow* and now I got sound. IRQ15 seems not be used for
anything anyway.

*Somehow* means that I tried changing the IRQ through the horrible IBM
config utility, and through the Win98 hardware management crapplets, not
to succeed ever (I had tried this in the past). After some dozen reboots
and 'F2'- Bios system checks now sound works under OS/2 for no apparent
reason, and I lost count of what I did. This sucks. Big big time.

I can't find the syntax anywhere, nor you get any config panel during
the driver installation...

Thanks for trying but that readme boils doewn to "ANY problems?
deinstall MMOS2 altogether, reinstall it w/o SB Pro support and try again".

OK buds, I got it to work out of luck (yes, I know I did what you told 
me to, but it didn't work at the beginning) so let's move on to 
interesting things.

Next thing I'll be trying is to get a PCCard Network card running (I got 
it to work on another laptop ages ago, so this should be pretty 
straightforward). Any hints, though?

If everything goes well, I'll buy a modern harddisk, possibly a DVD 
burner and wifi equipment. Any hints here?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Alfredo.
