I have a Compaq presario with audio chip on the motherboard.
The chip is ES1869. Previous advice got me this far ...
I load the module with 'modprobe sb esstype=1869.'
I get this error: ESS chip ES1869 specified
kernel: sb: Interrupt test of IRQ7 failed - Probable IRQ conflict.
The utility 'saytime' works, but with long delays between words.
I can identify no cards using IRQ 7. My ethernet card uses IRQ 11.
Can anyone help me troubleshoot?
Thanks much,
Russ
