I'm actually new to the AC97 code (way too modern for me...) so will largely just have to trace stuff: After you load the OSS es1371 driver, there should be some information in dmesg. Example: === es1371: version v0.32 time 22:04:10 Jul 8 2008 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> Link [LNKD] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 es1371: found chip, vendor id 0x1274 device id 0x1371 revision 0x02 es1371: found es1371 rev 2 at io 0x6800 irq 11 ac97_codec: AC97 codec, id: TRA3 (TriTech TR28023) gameport: ESS1371 Gameport is isa0218/gameport0, io 0x218, speed 1988kHz === Could you post this output with your card? "dmesg | tail -10" right after loading should do. Then, if instead of es1371 you load the ALSA snd-ens1371 driver, you should have files /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0 and /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0+regs Could you post the contents of those? > Also, you might find it important that attempting to play back > microphone recordings in gnome sound recorder errs out with "could > not open audio device for playback". And all Pulse applications err > out with "failure: connection refused." If those applications still expect to be talking to ALSA that makes sense -- there's no ALSA at that point, only OSS.
