ah, that's good to know.  i should remove the pci id from emu10k1
driver.

do you have any chance to see what kind of chip exactly is that?
even though it's handled on software, there must be a CODEC and (very
likely) a DMA engine.  i doubt Dell uses its truely unique chip.
it must be an OEM chip which is compatible with something...
