Following up for the list archives: The es1371 driver in the current
kernel did not work for this card; Creative has apparently revved the
codec, or the way the codec reports itself to the driver, and the card
is thus not recognized correctly.
ALSA 0.5.2, however, does work. It has also been reported to me that
kernel 2.3.40 works; I have not confirmed that myself.
