Sound server issue

[David Wassman]

>From HP/Compaq website the soundcard driver for Windows is ESS 
1869/1887/1888 Audio Driver. I am guessing then the soundcard is ESS 
(whatever that means). I see on the handbook that ESS Solo-1/1E is 
supported. Does this driver work and how do you get FreeBSD to load it?
