** Description changed:

  maestro3 cards need firmware to work in recent kernels;
  I'm using xubuntu jaunty on a Dell Latitude C800.
  Card is recognized automatically by ubuntu but no sound.
  
  lspci |grep audio
  02:03.0 Multimedia audio controller: ESS Technology ES1983S Maestro-3i PCI 
Audio Accelerator (rev 10)
  
  dmesg |grep maestro
  [   22.584803] Maestro3 0000:02:03.0: firmware: requesting 
ess/maestro3_assp_kernel.fw
  [   22.720788] Maestro3 0000:02:03.0: firmware: requesting 
ess/maestro3_assp_minisrc.fw
  
  but firmware has been installed from medibuntu repo :
  locate maestro3_assp
  /lib/firmware/2.6.28-11-generic/ess/maestro3_assp_kernel.fw
  /lib/firmware/2.6.28-11-generic/ess/maestro3_assp_minisrc.fw
  /lib/firmware/ess/maestro3_assp_kernel.fw
  /lib/firmware/ess/maestro3_assp_minisrc.fw
  
  firmware looks correctely located, but it doesn't seem charged by module

  update 24-4-2009 :
  
  new kernel doesn't load snd-maestro3;
  trying to load manually 
  
  sudo modprobe snd-maestro3
  
  and get an error :
  WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/oss-compat, it will be 
ignored in a future release.
  FATAL: Error inserting snd_maestro3 
(/lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/kernel/sound/pci/snd-maestro3.ko): Unknown 
symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg).
+ 
+ Compiling driver from source (alsa v 19) give same problem as previous
+ (doesn't find firmware but module snd-maestro3 is charged correctely),
+ but it wasn't possible to compile alsa-utils from source correctly.
