Actually, from the looks of things there's no support (??) for the module. If there is, I'll be damned if I can find it. in /lib/modules/sound/ I see 2 that MIGHT pass as ensoniq, but when it comes to modules I'm not gonna try to load the wrong one. Of course, this is another thing that didn't have to be done up untill just last weekend (early b3 I guess).
/lib/modules/2.4.19-1mdk/kernel/sound/pci lspci | grep Ensoniq 00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq 5880 AudioPCI (rev 02) (wolf@mirage 08:42:31): /lib/modules/2.4.19-1mdk/kernel/sound/pci. The second problem is taht it's not ALL sound, so that the OS already KNOWS what card and driver it's using (arts is working somewhat, I just don't get much else (if anything) for sound).
