This was removed. dma2 - DMA2 # for CS4232 PCM interface. isapnp - ISA PnP detection - 0 = disable, 1 = enable (default) + The below are options for wavefront_synth features: + wf_raw - Assume that we need to boot the OS (default:no) + If yes, then during driver loading, the state of the board is + ignored, and we reset the board and load the firmware anyway. + fx_raw - Assume that the FX process needs help (default:yes) + If false, we'll leave the FX processor in whatever state it is + when the driver is loaded.
