Re: Creative Soundblaster PCI238 and kernel



In 2.4.0-test10, it´s Creative Ensoniq AudiioPCI 97 (ES1371).  I have
heard that some older PCI128´s might be ES1370, which is also available.

If you check the archives, you will find several people saying that you 
need the ALSA drivers to make this card work.  I can verify that it works
with ALSA, but I recently made a second stab and now have it going with
just the kernel modules.  The trick is to have only this line in 
/etc/modutils/audio: 
alias sound-slot-0 es1371

When I was using ALSA I had problems with the sound breaking up when the
CPU got busy (a 900 MHz Thunderbird, yet!), but no such problem now.
