Well Kim, your dream has come true. I committed Russells patch for ES1371/1373 to -STABLE yesterday. This means FreeBSD now supports the later revision Ensoniq and SoundBlaster PCI 16/64/128 cards (in theory) I agree with you that Russells patch was not very well advertised and it should have been committed months ago. I got my 1371 card 3 weeks ago and immediatly contacted Russell to get the patch ready for committing. NOTE: I've not committed Russells patch for -CURRENT yet. I want to get a 1371 on a -current box before I do the commit and check with Cameron first.
