I have that on my pc too. There is no support in OSS/Lite and the Alsa drivers are not very good, however, but normally the kernel drivers will be enough and they work very well, also no configuration is needed (just selecting the es1370 support when recompiling the kernel) so it is very easy to install. I think the only problem with the kernel drivers vs OSS or alsa is you cant do cat sound.au >/dev/audio to get sound. I can live without this :P -Lex
