All,

I recently tried to plugin and use an Audigy SE PCI card with  
2.6.20 and
noticed that it would lock up during driver registration.

After a little digging, I found that the interrupt routine and a  
few other
functions are relying on the x86 inl() / outl() to read from the  
sound card.

Is anyone aware of a PPC port for this driver? Or if it would be  
feasible? I
haven't ported a driver between architectures before.

Or does the inl() / outl() already have PPC equivalent functions  
and I need
to be looking for a PCI configuration problem with my system?
We implement these on PPC.  Clearly we don't have x86 style port IO,  
usually its handled by memory mapped access to a special region of  
memory that will be converted into a PCI IO space access.
