Problem with module esssolo1.o

Hi,

I'm not a kernel developer and I have no idea where I should send this request to. I hope you can forward it to the right person/list. Please also ask if he/she/they can "Cc:" me on the discussion because I'm not a member of the list.

My problem:

When I try to compile and install the esssolo1.o module I get the following error after typing "make modules_install".

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.8/kernel/drivers/sound/esssolo1.o

depmod:         gameport_register_port
depmod:         gameport_unregister_port

I tried this with kernel 2.4.8 and 2.4.9
My system is a IBM Thinkpad 390e (the version with a Celeron CPU). The sound card is a ESS Solo 1 that is build into the laptop.
The laptop/soundcard doesn't have a gameport.
With the kernel that ships with RedHat Linux 7.1 (2.4.2-2) the soundcard does work.

I hope you can tell me how I can get it working with the latest kernel.

With kind regards,

Marcel Loesberg

use the ac series of kernels, or enable joystick + gameport support.

p.s. my esssolo1 seems really broken, often it switches into high-pitched screams, or the DMA times out (permanently). The driver seems to try forever, making the module unloadable
