Here is lspci -nv for aw2:

02:0b.0 0480: 1131:7146 (rev 01)
        Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 19
        Memory at feafbc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512]

And here is lspci -x:

02:0b.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01)
00: 31 11 46 71 02 00 80 02 01 00 80 04 00 40 00 00
10: 00 bc af fe 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
30: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0b 01 00 00

So, the subsystem id and subsystem vendor id is 0, which is the default value 
for SAA7146. SAA7146 can be configured to use a specific subid with an eeprom, 
but it is not done here. However we can verify that the subid is zero. It is 
not a perfect solution, but it is better than nothing. I will try to provide a 
patch next week.

However what can we do if there is another card with SAA7146 and with the 
default subid which is not the aw2 sound card ?

Best regards,
Cedric
