Hi Jacob,

which soundcard did you have ? We allready made new audio drivers
and looking allways for some helpfull testers.

For your programming questions:

Yes m68k and x86 addresses are same

BUT

If you write address pointers in hardware registers, you have to
check which io region you use. Amithlon supports 2 io regions,
one in little endian and one in big endian where read and writes
are swapped automatically from cpu emu.

If you use linux drivers, you have to make sure that the used
hardware resources are not available to AmigaOS side and that
such things as irq's are cleared in case of cpu emulation reset.

With pci cards this is done over the powerpci.library and some
special mechanism with so called release code tables.
