I fixed my Ensoniq 1371 issue buy doing the following:
(please use do not make these changes if your not comfortable doing so)
1. You'll need to edit the 「modules」 file thru a terminal window. 2. Start you terminal window 3. Once at the flashing prompt type: 4. cd /etc 5. then type 6. sudo nano modules (when asked for the root password please enter it)
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. # # This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded # at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
lp psmouse
7. now move your blinking courser to the line just below the list line mine is 「psmouse」, yours could be different. then type in 「snd-ens1371」, your modules file should look similar to mine:
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. # # This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded # at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
lp psmouse snd-ens1371
8. To exit and save please do the following: * Crtl-O * You'll be asked: 「File Name to Write: modules」; just hit the "enter" key. * next you should see 「[ Wrote 9 lines ]」
9. Now it Ctrl-X to exit GNU nano 10. Once that is done you should be back at 「/etc$」 prompt. 11. Now restart your computer. Once back in Ubuntu test your sound card.
Your sound card should work now, if you have speakers connected to your sound card you should hear the Ubuntu startup sounds. Please let me know if this works for you.
