Good day. === The gusextreme driver neglects to set the gus->codec_flag meaning snd_gf1_pcm_new() allocates a second "PCM Playback Volume" control, which makes the driver fail to load. Signed-off-by: Rene Herman === On top of isa_bus patch... With this the driver works "fine" -- the es1688 bit is fine and the gf1 bit has the same problems as gusclassic; I assume it's going to be the same solution as well. Rene.
