Hello,

Does Plan9 support sound blaster for PIC bus?

I have no PC, and would like to buy a used PC to run Plan9.
Any suggestions or advices?

thanks.

Warning!  In the stores now is a Creative product called
"SoundBlaster 16 PCI".  The one I bought turned out to be
an *ISA* board, PnP daddratit, not PCI.  Apparently CL
has issued some sort of "SoundBlaster PCI" spec that
applies even to non-PCI cards (I guess programming them
must be limited to what will work on the least common
denominator of (ISA,PCI)), and they're using the "PCI"
label for the latter also.  I haven't yet brought up Plan 9
on the system where I installed that card, but soon will,
so we'll see..

Yes, Sound Blaster 16 and later are
supported.  I run a SB32 on my PCI bus.
