es1869 as sb?

[Kasper Souren <kasper@303.nu>]

Hi. I'm trying to get my laptop soundchip, an ES1869 running under ALSA. 
Under OSS it runs as an sb. With "modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5" 
I get:

SB 3.01 detected OK (220)
ESS chip ES1869 detected
<ESS ES1869 AudioDrive (rev 11) (3.01)> at 0x220 irq 5 dma 1,5

But this doesn't work with any of the ALSA sb modules. None of them accepts 
  any of the parameters I supply to in the command above. Is there a way to 
supply IRQ and DMA settings?
Or is there another way to get it running?

And also the ALSA es18xx module doesn't work. But I expected that, since I 
didn't manage to get the OSS es18xx module to work. But maybe I can help 
supporting the 1869 under the es18xx module. I'd be happy to do that.

greetz,
