[Alsa-user] Help-ESS sound card is not getting loaded

[Karthikeyan S <ka...@fu...>]

hi,

I have kernel 2.4.18 and alsa driver 0.9. I did cofigure, make and make
install, snddevices, everything is proper.
I have ESS 1688 sound card


/sbin/modprobe snd-es18xx
Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.18/modules.dep
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/isa/snd-es18xx.o: init_module: No such
device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including
inva
lid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/isa/snd-es18xx.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.18/ke
rnel/sound/isa/snd-es18xx.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/isa/snd-es18xx.o: insmod snd-es18xx failed

also i tried with snd-es1688 i got the same problem, am not able to use
aumix also, since no driver is detected.
I tried with snd-pcm-oss and snd-oss-mixer modules for OSS emulation, but it
still doesn't worked.

Can anybody help me.Do i need to do anything extra like specifying IRQ etc,
am a novice, pls help me in this regard.
However i was successful with other machine which has Intel sound card ac
'97. It worked with oss emulated module itself.

thanx and regds
karthik
