I got everything but my sound (and suspend/resume, but that's another story) running in linux on my Inspiron 8000 ( yay! )
Alsa installs okay, but I only have version .5.9 and I need .5.10 to get the Maestro 3 drivers for the sound chip I have in the laptop. Only thing is when I go to the ALSA website and install the sources and try to compile them, there's a whole bunch of errors. I'm using kernel 2.2.19. I've also tried compiling them against Kernel 2.4.4 but there were some missing include files there too. I don't mind waiting a bit for Debian to add .5.10 to their distribution, but if there was a quicker way to get it working, I would be a happy camper. Thanks! Yannick
