Thanks for the reply.

I went with your suggestion of an offset of 0x18 and mapped 2 bytes. However 
the mpu driver wont attach. I've created and set up mpu_emuxki.c and added 
the necessary to files.pci and the GENERIC config file. It seems to be 
failing because the mpu_find in the match method fails. 

Looking at 8010.h from the latest linuk kernel sources i noticed this comment

//For Audigy, MPU port move to 0x70-0x74 ptr register

What does that mean? (i'm completely new to hardware programming so sorry for 
the elementary questions)

If thats not the problem it may be the fact my card is audigy2 based (or my 
code is wrong somewhere), but i'm fairly sure the linux driver has support 
for these cards too.

One last thing in the code there are lots of DPRINTF statements, is there some 
flag i need to set in the kernel config file to get the output of these 
methods?

Any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
