Not only does Linux have support for it, but so do NetBSD AND OpenBSD. I
never thought I'd see the day when FreeBSD had less x86 hardware support
than OpenBSD! I asked about porting it over, but no-one had any tips.
I am in the middle of finals right now, but maybe I will give it a stab
over the summer if someone better doesn't get to it first (please,
please, please!). Theoretically it should be easy to do, right???

It does work excellent under Linux. I have a Linux box with an ASuS
mb with the onboard ESS Solo1 audio. The driver is part of the standard
2.2 kernel. Has been since 2.1 I think.
