What Dave said.
I've had the misfortune to have not one but 2 ESS cards, and they were both
sh*t, although it's probably the drivers (GPL kept freezing--including the
sound--which is usually a driver problem). If the ESS drivers don't work,
try another mfr's drivers whose card uses the same chipset as the ESS.
Or just get a SBL!
