Should be OK. Are you sure you want the PC speaker (pca) when having an
SB PCI 128 ;-) ?

I had the PCI128 working since 3.1. However, it might be that I
applied some patches at that time since they weren't included in the
base distribution yet (the site where I got it isn't there anymore).
Check /usr/src/sys/pci for es1370.c and es1370_reg.h. (my versions
are from 1999/08/29).

^^^^^^^
Are you sure this is the custom kernel you built? It isn't a bad
idea to rename it to avoid any confusion (and keep the GENERIC
for reference).

That's 128MB, but you mentioned that the machine is running 64MB??
Hmmm, I don't see any trace of an SB PCI 128 in this dmesg :-(.
Are you really sure about the correct kernel version?
It should list something like
es1: <AudioPCI ES1370> rev 0x01 int a irq 5 on pci0.10.0
pcm1: using I/O space register mapping at 0xb800
and
pcm0 not found
(for some reason this is normal).
Good luck,
Karel.
