Description:
|
Factory-installed soundcard for 1999 HP Omnibook 900b, probably others.
Works in SuSE 7.3 and 8.1 with kernels 2.6.0, 2.6.8.1 (probably earlier ones...I think possibly as early as 2.2 was working with this one) - find the appropriate module (es1968 or maestro) in the kernel config, and if it doesn't config right on its own go set your /etc/modules.conf file to have this in the OSS section (everything else for alsa, etc. commented out):
alias char-major-14 maestro
#alias sound off
#alias midi off

I have this device in my Compaq Armada M300. Since it is a laptop I always just compile the driver right into the kernel. I have never had any problems with it.
