Old Compaq Presario P1 133 with an onboard ESS1788 AudioGlide chip.  After seeing nothing but "segmentation fault" in sndconfig I finally took a look at 'modinfo sb' and found something that works:
modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 esstype=1788
Now if some kind soul would tell me what to do with the other i/o (0388-038B and 0330-0331)
Thanks and hope this helps someone.

waa waa waa,  :)

I read somewhere that the esstype line should only be "1" ( one )
if you are using the old 16xx series..
Otherwise , use esstype=0 for the 17xx, 18xx, and 19xx series cards..

Try this...
" modprobe sb o=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 esstype=0 "
...if this returns a prompt without errors listed, then try
" modprobe opl3 "
...that should fill your 0x388 spot....

If these work for you, than try placing these lines in your
"/opt/bootlocal.sh" file..

If running from frugal, or Live CD , make sure to backup before reboot
with the "/opt/bootlocal"  line in your "/home/dsl/filetool.lst"

Then you'll never have to type these in again..

Please share with us where the esstype=1788 came from.
Perhaps you've seen something I'd like to read !

ke4nt1...in a terminal window do 'modinfo sb' for an extensive list of parameters.  One line reads "esstype init, description 'ESS chip type'".  This is DSL 0.8
