Hi! I have been using an ess1868 card for a long time, and it works well with linux kernel 2.2.12. I don't remember the correct settings (i'm working now and linux is on my home machine only) but I think you should use the sound blaster module. Since this is an PNP card, you should adjust /etc/isapnp... on your machine, and you have to add the correct irq and dma settings when loading the sb module. --Tibi -- ---------.Sig-------- Tibor Pap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---------------------
