How can I get DSL XMMS to work with ESS1869 sound card? What driver? I've tried soundblaster wiith sndconfig with no luck. There's a driver for windoze here http://www.soundcard-drivers.com/drivers/31/31155.htm but I can't find anything for Linux.What happens when you try these... "modprobe sb esstype=0 " or "modprobe esssolo1" ?
73 ke4ntThanks for the reply. "modprobe sb esstype=0" got no response. "modprobe essolo1" got me this:/lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/esssol1.o:init_module:No such device Hint:insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/esssolo1.o:insmod/lib/modules/2.4.22-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/esssolo1.o failed. Got this in terminal root.

This is usually GOOD NEWS.. Did you truly get a return to prompt with no error messages?
After doing this, can you exit X ( ctrl-alt-bksp ) Then "startx" to get your desktop back.. Do you see the wmix mixer at the bottom of your slit (dock ) ?
The esssolo1 is for the more beefy versions of ess cards. So I expected a negative response...
I still feel we are close.. Perhaps some experimenting with the io, irq, and dma info.. What did the " insmod opl3" do for you ?
