Stephen Borrill reminded me that I'd never contributed the 16-bit sound
driver that I have for the RISC PC.
The reason for not doing so is that the code is a bit of a hack
(understatement of the month here); so instead of installing it directly,
I've uploaded a patch to the ftp site.
You can find the patch in
pub/NeBSD/arch/acorn32/misc/
the pertinent files being README-sound16 and sound16
Have fun. If anyone has time to try this on an A5000, or a machine with
8-bit DACs I'd be interested in hearing how you get on. (If the bootparam
sound16 is not set, then it should default back to the old behaviour).
