The "midi* at sb?" attachment in NetBSD 1.4 works only with
plug-and-play SoundBlasters. If your card is not PnP, the MPU will
not work in 1.4.
Support for ISA MPU devices (like the actual Roland MPU401) was
recently added to -current, allowing you to use lines like these in
the config file:
midi* at mpu?
mpu* at isa? port 0x330 irq 9
This may also work with the MPU401 port on a non-PnP SoundBlaster,
provided there is a way to set up the correct I/O port and interrupt
manually.
