My sound card module is ens1371. I need it to play .mid files--which it does just fine with TiMidity and with the Plugger plugin for FireFox.

However, I've got a program that is looking for ES1371 driver instead of ens1371. Ordinarily I'd try to modify the program to look for the proper module, but this program happens to be a Windows program that I'm running through WINE. I lack the know-how to manipulate the program, but I'm thinking that symlinking the module might work.

I've symlinked all kinds of files and devices before, but never done a module. I don't even know if it's possible without causing much conflict. I can't test it now because I'm at work, but I was wondering if anyone has attempted this in the past, and if so, how'd you do it?

I don't think symlinking the module.o file will be any use, but rather I'd have to symlink the installed module. This is where the problem lies. Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?

I would say at a guess it should work... you could always hard link it if soft linking doesn´t work and its just the same as having the file there. Then again i have NO idea about how stuff works with wine

I tried symlinking the module and it didn't do any good. As for hard linking it, I wouldn't know where to put it for Wine to recognize it.

Any ideas?

maybe try to add :

-----
alias ES1371 ens1371
-----

in modprobe.conf ( 2.6 kernel ) or modules.conf ( 2.4 )
