+Changelog for version 3.5-alpha7
+--------------------------------
+
+Since 3.5-alpha6
+- Changed all #ifndef EXCLUDE_xx stuff to #ifdef CONFIG_xx. Modified
+configure to handle this. 
+- Removed initialization messages from the
+modularized version. They can be enabled by using init_trace=1 in
+the insmod command line (insmod sound init_trace=1).
+- More AIX stuff.
+- Added support for syncronizing dsp/audio devices with /dev/sequencer.
+- mmap() support for dsp/audio devices.
+
+Since 3.5-alpha5
+- AIX port.
+- Changed some xxx_PATCH macros in soundcard.h to work with
+  big endian machines.
+
+Since 3.5-alpha4
+- Removed the 'setfx' stuff from the version distributed with kernel
+  sources.
+
+Since 3.5-alpha3
+- Moved stuff from the 'setfx' program to the AudioTriX Pro driver.
+
+Since 3.5-alpha2
+- Modifications to makefile and configure.c. Unnecessary sources
+  are no longer compiled. Newly created local.h is also copied to
+  /etc/soundconf. "make oldconfig" reads /etc/soundconf and produces
+  new local.h which is compatible with current version of the driver.
+- Some fixes to the SB16 support.
+- Fixed random protection fault in gus_wave.c
+
+Since 3.5-alpha1
+- Modified to work with Linux-1.3.33 and leater
+- Some minor changes
+
+Since 3.0.2
+- Support for CS4232 based PnP cards (AcerMagic S23 etc).
+- Full duplex support for some CS4231, CS4232 and AD1845 based cards
+(GUA MAX, AudioTrix Pro, AcerMagic S23 and many MAD16/Mozart cards
+having a codec mentioned above).
+- Almost fully rewritten loadable modules support.
+- Fixed some bugs.
+- Huge amount of testing (more testing is still required).
+- mmap() support (works with some cards). Requires much more testing.
+- Sample/patch/program loading for TB Maui/Tropez. No initialization
+since TB doesn't allow me to release that code.
+- Using CS4231 compatible codecs as timer for /dev/music.
+
+Since 3.0.1
+- Added allocation of I/O ports, DMA channels and interrupts
+to the initialization code. This may break modules support since
+the driver may not free some resources on unload. Should be fixed soon.
+
+Since 3.0
+- Some important bug fixes. 
+- select() for /dev/dsp and /dev/audio (Linux only).
+(To use select() with read, you have to call read() to start
+the recording. Calling write() kills recording immediately so
+use select() carefully when you are writing a half duplex app.
+Full duplex mode is not implemented yet.) Select works also with
+/dev/sequencer and /dev/music. Maybe with /dev/midi## too.
+
+Since 3.0-beta2
+- Minor fixes.
+- Added Readme.cards
+
+Since 3.0-beta1
+- Minor fixes to the modules support.
+- Eliminated call to sb_free_irq() in ad1848.c
+- Rewritten MAD16&Mozart support (not tested with MAD16 Pro).
+- Fix to DMA initialization of PSS cards.
+- Some fixes to ad1848/cs42xx mixer support (GUS MAX, MSS, etc.)
+- Fixed some bugs in the PSS driver which caused I/O errors with
+  the MSS mode (/dev/dsp).
+
+Since 3.0-950506
+- Recording with GUS MAX fixed. It works when the driver is configured
+  to use two DMA channels with GUS MAX (16 bit ones recommended).
+
+Since 3.0-94xxxx
+- Too many changes
+
+Since 3.0-940818
+- Fixes for Linux 1.1.4x.
+- Disables Disney Sound System with SG NX Pro 16 (less noise).
+
+Since 2.90-2
+- Fixes to soundcard.h
+- Non blocking mode to /dev/sequencer
+- Experimental detection code for Ensoniq Soundscape.
+
+Since 2.90
+- Minor and major bug fixes
+
+Since pre-3.0-940712
+- GUS MAX support
+- Partially working MSS/WSS support (could work with some cards).
+- Hardware u-Law and A-Law support with AD1848/CS4248 and CS4231 codecs
+  (GUS MAX, GUS16, WSS etc). Hardware ADPCM is possible with GUS16 and
+  GUS MAX, but it doesn't work yet.
+Since pre-3.0-940426
+- AD1848/CS4248/CS4231 codec support (MSS, GUS MAX, Aztec, Orchid etc).
+This codec chip is used in various soundcards. This version is developed
+for the 16 bit daughtercard of GUS. It should work with other cards also
+if the following requirements are met:
+	- The I/O, IRQ and DMA settings are jumper selectable or
+	the card is initialized by booting DOS before booting Linux (etc.).
+	- You add the IO, IRQ and DMA settings manually to the local.h.
+	  (Just define GUS16_BASE, GUS16_IRQ and GUS16_DMA). Note that
+	the base address bust be the base address of the codec chip not the
+	card itself. For the GUS16 these are the same but most MSS compatible
+	cards have the codec located at card_base+4.
+- Some minor changes
+
+Since 2.5 (******* MAJOR REWRITE ***********)
+
+This version is based on v2.3. I have tried to maintain two versions
+together so that this one should have the same features than v2.5.
+Something may still be missing. If you notice such things, please let me
+know.
+
+The Readme.v30 contains more details.
+
+- /dev/midi## devices.
+- /dev/sequencer2
+
+Since 2.5-beta2
+- Some fine tuning to the GUS v3.7 mixer code.
+- Fixed speed limits for the plain SB (1.0 to 2.0).
+
+Since 2.5-beta
+- Fixed OPL-3 detection with SB. Caused problems with PAS16.
+- GUS v3.7 mixer support.
+
+Since 2.4
+- Mixer support for Sound Galaxy NX Pro (define __SGNXPRO__ on your local.h).
+- Fixed truncated sound on /dev/dsp when the device is closed.
+- Linear volume mode for GUS
+- Pitch bends larger than +/- 2 octaves.
+- MIDI recording for SB and SB Pro. (Untested).
+- Some other fixes.
+- SB16 MIDI and DSP drivers only initialized if SB16 actually installed.
+- Implemented better detection for OPL-3. This should be useful if you
+  have an old SB Pro (the non-OPL-3 one) or a SB 2.0 clone which has a OPL-3.
+- SVR4.2 support by Ian Hartas. Initial ALPHA TEST version (untested).
+
+Since 2.3b
+- Fixed bug which made it impossible to make long recordings to disk.
+  Recording was not restarted after a buffer overflow situation.
+- Limited mixer support for GUS.
+- Numerous improvements to the GUS driver by Andrew Robinson. Including
+  some click removal etc.
+
+Since 2.3
+- Fixed some minor bugs in the SB16 driver.
+
+Since 2.2b
+- Full SB16 DSP support. 8/16 bit, mono/stereo
+- The SCO and FreeBSD versions should be in sync now. There are some
+  problems with SB16 and GUS in the freebsd versions.
+  The DMA buffer allocation of the SCO version has been polished but
+  there could still be some problems. At least it hogs memory.
+  The DMA channel
+  configuration method used in the sco/System is a hack.
+- Support for the MPU emulation of the SB16.
+- Some big arrays are now allocated boot time. This makes the bss segment
+  smaller which makes it possible to use the full driver with
+  NetBSD. These arrays are not allocated if no suitable soundcard is available.
+- Fixed a bug in the compute_and_set_volume in gus_wave.c
+- Fixed the too fast mono playback problem of SB Pro and PAS16.
+
+Since 2.2
+- Stereo recording for SB Pro. Somehow it was missing and nobody
+  had noticed it earlier.
+- Minor polishing.
+- Interpreting of boot time arguments (sound=) for Linux.
+- Breakup of sb_dsp.c. Parts of the code has been moved to
+  sb_mixer.c and sb_midi.c
+
+Since 2.1
+- Preliminary support for SB16. 
+  - The SB16 mixer is supported in its native mode.
+  - Digitized voice capability up to 44.1 kHz/8 bit/mono
+    (16 bit and stereo support coming in the next release).
+- Fixed some bugs in the digitized voice driver for PAS16.
+- Proper initialization of the SB emulation of latest PAS16 models.
+
+- Significantly improved /dev/dsp and /dev/audio support.
+  - Now supports half duplex mode. It's now possible to record and
+    playback without closing and reopening the device.
+  - It's possible to use smaller buffers than earlier. There is a new
+    ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SUBDIVIDE, &n) where n should be 1, 2 or 4.
+    This call instructs the driver to use smaller buffers. The default
+    buffer size (0.5 to 1.0 seconds) is divided by n. Should be called
+    immediately after opening the device.
+
+Since 2.0
+Just cosmetic changes.
