Hi,
i have found a minor 'problem' in the 2.4.0-testX kernels, that occurs
when an ESS1868 soundcard is ISAPnP autodetected. (i.e. when the "sb"
driver is compiled directly into the kernel)
The "source" of the problem is in /drivers/sound/sb_card.c line. 399:
in the sb_isapnp_list[] are two "ESS 1868" entries (same Card identifers
but different logical devices. The Kernel detects both cards but can
only initialize one because only for one the logical device id matches
with the card. It gives an error message for the other one.
Apart from that, EVERYTHING is working correctly. The problem is only
that you get a error for a card that you dont have :-)
The easyest thing would be to remove one of the ESS1868 definitions but
i don't consider that as an option.
Here is my Patch suggestion. I have merged the sb_isapnp_init() into the
sb_init() function to prevent the error from being printed. I don't know
if this "merge" is "allowed" but at least it now works correctly for
me.

Here is my patch:
