There were no replies about this problem (I emailed him to ask as well). I have the same problem on an HP Kayak XU, and an additional piece of information. I did have ALSA 0.5.9 working on this machine before I updated the machine's BIOS to try to fix a different problem. The new BIOS is Phoenix BIOS, version HB.12.06. I don't know what the old BIOS version was, but the sound configuration page in the BIOS displayed an error in the old BIOS (even though ALSA worked fine). I have tried all settings of the sound configuration in the BIOS; Enabled (with explicit settings for I/O and DMA); Auto; and Disabled/PnP (which should be found by plug and play). The sound system was not detected in any of these modes, whether built with pnp or without, and whether the ad1816a parameters were explicitly set or not. pnpdump did not detect the sound system either. I have tried after a Linux version update to SuSE 7.3 (kernel 2.4.10), and Alsa 0.5.12. Has anyone solved this problem? a. _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
