Your PS is the first time I've even heard a rumor that someone got sound
working on a laptop under Debian...

Sound is still one place Legacy OSes; Windows in particular; blow Linux
away.  I assume that's because Linux still isn't really heavily used as a
desktop OS.  Don't get me wrong, sound can work (it does for my desktop),
but never easily, and especially not on a laptop.
