An intermediate solution that you might want to apply is to merge the PCI ID list for the sound card sound_intel_hda from kernel 2.6.23. I think that this should be safe.
For my case, the list is in the source file sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c Accessing that source file from online Torvalds' GIT source tree, in URL http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob_plain;f=sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c;hb=HEAD we find [....] /* PCI IDs */ static struct pci_device_id azx_ids[] = { { 0x8086, 0x2668, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ICH6 */ { 0x8086, 0x27d8, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ICH7 */ { 0x8086, 0x269a, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ESB2 */ { 0x8086, 0x284b, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ICH8 */ { 0x8086, 0x293e, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ICH9 */ { 0x8086, 0x293f, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ICH }, /* ICH9 */ { 0x1002, 0x437b, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATI }, /* ATI SB450 */ { 0x1002, 0x4383, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATI }, /* ATI SB600 */ { 0x1002, 0x793b, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI }, /* ATI RS600 HDMI */ { 0x1002, 0x7919, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI }, /* ATI RS690 HDMI */ { 0x1002, 0x960c, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI }, /* ATI RS780 HDMI */ { 0x1002, 0xaa00, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ATIHDMI }, /* ATI R600 HDMI */ { 0x1106, 0x3288, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_VIA }, /* VIA VT8251/VT8237A */ { 0x1039, 0x7502, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_SIS }, /* SIS966 */ { 0x10b9, 0x5461, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_ULI }, /* ULI M5461 */ { 0x10de, 0x026c, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP51 */ { 0x10de, 0x0371, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP55 */ { 0x10de, 0x03e4, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP61 */ { 0x10de, 0x03f0, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP61 */ { 0x10de, 0x044a, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP65 */ { 0x10de, 0x044b, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP65 */ { 0x10de, 0x055c, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP67 */ { 0x10de, 0x055d, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP67 */ { 0x10de, 0x07fc, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP73 */ { 0x10de, 0x07fd, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP73 */ { 0x10de, 0x0774, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP77 */ { 0x10de, 0x0775, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP77 */ { 0x10de, 0x0776, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP77 */ { 0x10de, 0x0777, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, AZX_DRIVER_NVIDIA }, /* NVIDIA MCP77 */ { 0, } }; -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
