The error caused the entire system to freeze while using this map in Pipewire/WirePlier’s modern sound environment. The problem was recognized again on the old computer with 1 GB of RAM, where the Pentium processor and Fedora 39 were installed. However, the correction was only included in the nucleus in the middle -2025.
Core developers have announced that Sound Blastter has made changes to ISA-Sound cards: now it stops working with DMA while changing the mode, and also prohibits changing DMA mode during operations-this is exactly what leads to failures.
Even such an old sound card can work correctly in modern Linux systems.
