Martin, I'm no expert, but it's curious that Linux obviously finds the card (from your initial post), then this error you report appears. Perhaps something else is attempting to use the card? Did you make other modifications someplace? Are there multiple sound cards? As mentioned previously, I have the same card working in my plain vanilla etch installation. Here's what I see, perhaps you could compare with yours: /var/log/dmesg: isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards... isapnp: Card 'ESS ES1868 Plug and Play AudioDrive' isapnp: 1 Plug & Play card detected total pnp: Device 01:01.00 activated. pnp: Device 01:01.01 activated. Perhaps this could help someone diagnose your problem by comparison: ~$ cat /dev/sndstat Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA v1.0.12rc1 emulation code) Kernel: Linux magic 2.6.18-4-686 #1 SMP Mon Mar 26 17:17:36 UTC 2007 i686 Config options: 0 Installed drivers: Type 10: ALSA emulation Card config: ESS AudioDrive ES1868 at 0x220, irq 5, dma1 1, dma2 0 Audio devices: 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1868 Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG Midi devices: 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1868 MIDI Timers: 7: system timer Mixers: 0: ESS AudioDrive ES1868 Let me know if you need anything similar. Maybe a more knowledgeable reader could chime in with better suggestions. Good luck! Ralph -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
