[SLUG] ESS688 soundcard hassles
Warning: I'm new to Linux. Am trying to install an ESS688 soundcard on RedHat7.1 Settings for w*s were I/O port: 220 IRQ: 10 DMA: 1 sndconfig doesn't accept these settings and the redhat FAQ's go over my head. Have googled etc but would appreciate any pointers to other help files, advice etc. Most of the google pages re ESS were in French or Russian :( TIA Julian Pringle -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Any advice appreciated. TIA Julian Pringle -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug

As a Newbie I worry that this will leave us playing in the shallow end of the pool for ever. It's like learning any foreign language - the more you read the more you absorb (even if you don't understand the questions at first, let alone the answers). Hunting the archives for an answer you often learn other stuff along the way. Let us hang in and read and learn, and forgive us the odd dopey question. The blind never did lead the blind very far.
