I have recompiled my kernel (2.2.1) with the es1370.o module and its
associated soundlow.o, soundcore.o and sound.o modules. Also loaded
OLP2/3 stuff and mpu401. All this stuff loads just fine at boot but I
still get no /dev/dsp /dev/sndstat devices at all. Is there something
missing? My system is a Gateway G6-266 and unfortunately Gatweay saw
fit at that time to ship an oddball, off-board IDE controller and this
oddball soundcard. Both have given me fits with Linux. Got the IDE
controller under wraps, finally, but this sound card is throwing me for
a loop.
