Problem with es1371
Hi. I've compiled new kernel, and made soundcard support as modules. I've SB64PCI card, which I think is preferred as es1371. I've tried to do as told in linux-sound-howto, but pnpdump founds no boards, so I can't configure isapnp.conf. But I'm not even sure do I have to use isapnp? After all, this is not isa card, it's pci card. 'modprobe es1371' loads soundcore.o and es1371.o, but nothing appears in file /dev/sndstat. It only tells that 'No such device' when I try 'cat /dev/sndstat'. I've tried with several different BIOS-settings also, which doesn't help. Motherboard is asus P2L97, very basic board I think. Maybe someone could help me or at least tell me where to find more information about sounds in Debian. I've read howto's and man-pages and all this stuff; maybe I've missed something?

I've tried to do as told I do not know which settings you need in conf.modules to make this work, but a quick solution would be to build it into the kernel. It works for me, at least. Isapnp definitely won't help you. Regards Jens

I've SB64PCI card, which I think is preferred as Petteri es1371. What _version_ of the kernel? I've got a card that reports as a es1371, and (due to changes in the card) it doesn't work with the 2.2 series es1371 driver. If you get the pciutils .deb, and then do a 'lspci', you should see a line something like this: 00:0d.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 07) If the number after 'rev' is '07', then you need to use the driver from later 2.3 kernels. I'm running 2.4.0-test1, and it's been pretty stable -- you might want to give that a go.
