Sound Blaster PCI 128 autodetected as Creative Enconiq Audio PCI?

Sound Blaster PCI 128 autodetected as Creative Enconiq Audio PCI?

[Britton]

This card is listed as one of those that works in Sound-Howto, but without
and particular instructions what to do to make it work.  I assume it is
still based on Creative Ensoniq Audio PCI (1370 or 1371) driver?  I have
tried compiling into the kernel 1371 support, and dmesg tells me the card
initialization is begun and completed, but /dev/mixer can't be
opened.  On the card itself, I see:

MODEL: CT4700

and a chip with the following:

Creative
5507
5507000101
A A8D0571
9906  TAIWAN

Am I trying the right driver?  If so, does anyone know of any additional
tricks that might apply to this card in particular?  

Thanks,
Britton Kerin

Likely. Can you try 2.3.49 or 2.2.15pre1x?

On my new maschiine with Debian/potato/frozen setup
i use the kernel that comes with the distribution.
In my /etc/modules i have the two lines

soundcore
es1371

and it works. 
I also tried the hard way recompiling kernel etc....
I'm not sure of what to learn from it though ;).
