Sound Blaster PCI 128 autodetected as Creative Enconiq Audio PCI?
This card is listed as one of those that works in Sound-Howto, but without and particular instructions what to do to make it work. I assume it is still based on Creative Ensoniq Audio PCI (1370 or 1371) driver? I have tried compiling into the kernel 1371 support, and dmesg tells me the card initialization is begun and completed, but /dev/mixer can't be opened. On the card itself, I see:
MODEL: CT4700
and a chip with the following:
Creative
5507
5507000101
A A8D0571
9906 TAIWAN
Am I trying the right driver? If so, does anyone know of any additional tricks that might apply to this card in particular?
Thanks,

Likely. Can you try 2.3.49 or 2.2.15pre1x?

On my new maschiine with Debian/potato/frozen setup i use the kernel that comes with the distribution. In my /etc/modules i have the two lines
soundcore
es1371
and it works.
I also tried the hard way recompiling kernel etc.... I'm not sure of what to learn from it though ;).
