Hmmm. Sounds interesting. !Verma says that the SoundDMA module I have is a
very different number:  "1.64 (21 Feb 2003) AC97 version." I don't know
what the implications are there?

The other small problem is that I can't find the card you mention for sale,
and the one picture I have found so far shows the same pin arrangement as
this card I have. There is an unflattering review too!  :

but presumably this is a different card.
Is there some code# for the pin arrangement needed for the Iyonix?
