Hi Sylvian
   As I said earlier my Sound controller is es1979. But I removed all
the alsa modules (0.95) and did a fresh kernel compilation with Sound
support and ESS Maestro 2/2E support as Modules.

Then I installed everything and copied the same stuff as you have given
to me to the /etc/modules.conf. (Actually my modules.conf was empty )

When I executed modprobe snd-es1968, it returned a series of messages
with failed at the end.

I dont have internet with my linux system and I could not copy that
message and paste it here.

Also My Slackware crashed and I cant boot in again. So I have decided to
do a reinstall with Slackware9.0 and will try to do the same?

Any thoughts?

Is there anything wrong with version 0.95?

Regards
KS
