Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-k7
Version 2.6.8-1
Using the ALSA drivers, my VIA 8233A card repeats sounds, making sound
unusable. This can be remedied by the acpi=off and noapic options, but
having these options switched off doesn't seem to let me use my nvidia
graphics card. A better solution is to backport a patch to the kernel
that hasn't yet made it to the sources:
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3175
I'm attaching a diff against the Debian package that works for me.
Hope this is the right procedure -- I've not reported a kernel bug
before.
David.

The 2.6.8 kernel is no longer supported by Debian so I'm closing
your bug report. Please try the 2.6.26 kernel from Debian lenny.
If this issue is still present, let me know.
Thanks.
