Well, is seems you are right. Now every mplayer user connected to this
message board knows that I have badly configured audio driver.
This is part of my boot log related to sound initialisation:

This began to show when I replaced motherboard.
But I am sure that isapnp.conf and modules.conf are set correctly.
I used pnpdump values. But I must solve this problem somehow.
Until using mplayer everything works great, so I little forgot
about this problematic bootlog messages.



thanks a lot....
