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.
