    Okay, I got my Delta 1010 today!  :)  Removed my old SBLive and 
installed the new card and hooked up the rack interface.  Fired it up 
and Kudzu wanted to do the right thing removing the old device and 
identifying the envy24 device.  So far so good!

    Logged in and tried envy24control - got a "snd_ctl_open: No such 
device error."  lsmod?  Oops.  No envy-like module. :(  So I did a quick 
scan through the sound driver modules - no envy module there.  Next 
stop, the ever faithful sndconfig utility.  It ID'ed the card as an IC 
Ensemble ICE1712 Envy24 then told me it wasn't supported.  Wah! :p

    So what module do I need to load for this bad boy?  I figure I need 
to shove something manually into modules.conf...

    TIA!
