sound card help ES1978 Sound Card - maestro driver
Hi, this is a compaq Armada laptop, which has a ES1978 Sound Card which uses the maestro driver. It has been auto detected on every distro i have tried. I am now using Kanotix with a 2.6.9 kernel. It did not automaticlly detect the sound card, so how would i go about configuring this. I ran 'modprobe maestro' which loaded but still did not give me sound. Thanks for your help.
lspci: .... 0000:00:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1978 Maestro 2E (rev 10) .... lsmod: .... maestro 32392 1 soundcore 7264 2 maestro .... i would really appreciate any kind of help... |
well, i figured it out....in case anyone has a similar problem, i figured i would post how i did it.....i realized that when the computer started there was an error that said it couldnt find modules.dep....so when it booted up, i ran 'modprobe maestro' then 'depmod'...sure enough... sound was up and running..
