In older versions og RedHat my soundcard has been working fine with es1370. 02:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: NexGen Microsystems: Unknown device 5000 Subsystem: Unknown device 4942:4c4c Flags: slow devsel, IRQ 9 I/O ports at b800 [size=64] [root@morticia root]# modprobe es1370 /lib/modules/2.4.9-7/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o: init_module: No such device Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters /lib/modules/2.4.9-7/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.9-7/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.9-7/kernel/drivers/sound/es1370.o: insmod es1370 failed
Does the PCI id show up the same on older kernels? I ask because the one you posted is 1074:5000, while the normal es1370 id is 1274:5000.

Can it be sonething in the difference between 2.4.7-10 to 2.4.9-7 ?
Well, 7.3 came, then 8.0 and the card works fine ;) I guess this can be closed now ;)
Hrmph :)
