Hi all,

I'm trying to get my ESS ES1980 Maestro3 soundcard working with LM 7.1 (Kernel
2.2.15). I've established that I need to install ALSA sound drivers, and
according to the web site, version 0.5.10b supports the maestro3 card. My
problem is I've downloaded the package, compiled it up but when I run 'modprobe
snd-card-maestro3' I get error messages:

/lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdk/misc/snd-card-maestro3.o: init_module: Device or
resource busy
/lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdk/misc/snd-card-maestro3.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdk/misc/snd-card-maestro3.o failed
/lib/modules/2.2.15-4mdk/misc/snd-card-maestro3.o: insmod snd-card-maestro3
failed

and in the /var/log/messages file:

kernel: snd: unable to grab IRQ 0 for Maestro3
kernel: snd: maestro3: unable to grab IRQ 0
kernel: snd: Maestro3/Allegro soundcard not found or device busy

I think this is probably a basic configuration problem with the kernel, but I'm
not sure where to start.

Any suggestions ?

thanks,
Colin
