Re: Ensonic AudioPCI sound card problems

["D. Marcus Johnson" <schwaahed@yahoo.com>]

Hi I have ALSA 0.5.7 with my EnsoniqAudioPCI(1371). It
works like a charm for me. The set up is similar to
get a (1370) type card,*So I've Heard*!
     If I we're you I would check the alsa user list
archives. It should get you set along with the
included documentation if you choose to install the
ALSA drivers.
    *Warning* the hardest parts for me was you will
need to compile a Kernel with *Only* sound support and
no other audio options for the drivers compiled in. In
addition the configuration file--> /etc/modules.conf
confused the hell out of me, but I beleive there is an
ens1370 or 1371 HOWTO in the list archives that will
lead you through the process step by step.

-Good Luck
