Ciao Marco,

From ftp://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/alan/2.2/patch-2.2.1-ac5.bz2

+In 2.2 kernels the SoundBlaster driver not only tries to detect an ESS chip,
it  
+tries to detect the type of ESS chip too. The correct detection of the
chip      
+doesn't always succeed however, so the default behaviour is 2.0
behaviour        
+which means: only detect ES688 and
ES1688.                                       
+                                                                                 
+All ESS chips now have a recording level setting. This is a need-to-have
for     
+people who want to use their ESS for recording
sound.                            
+                                                                                 
+Every chip that's detected as a later-than-es1688 chip has a 6 bits
logarithmic  
+master volume
control.                                                           
+                                                                                 
+Every chip that's detected as a ES1887 now has Full Duplex support. Made
a       
+little testprogram that showes that is works, haven't seen a real program
that   
+needs this
however.                                                              
+                                                                                 
+For ESS chips an additional parameter "esstype" can be specified. This
controls  
+the (auto) detection of the ESS chips. It can have 3 kinds of
values:            
+                                                                                 
+-1   Act like 2.0 kernels: only detect ES688 or
ES1688.                          
+0       Try to auto-detect the chip (may fail for
ES1688)                        
+688  The chip will be treated as 
ES688
