No, the Blade does not use the cs4231 chipset. It uses a real soundcard chip. Try the kernel OSS drivers, one of them works (don't remember the model in the moment). Only problem is that the interface is not compatible to the old Sun audio system, so you have to reconfigure and recompile most multimedia applications :-( -- Thorsten Kukuk http://www.suse.de/~kukuk/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] SuSE GmbH Deutschherrenstr. 15-19 D-90429 Nuernberg -------------------------------------------------------------------- Key fingerprint = A368 676B 5E1B 3E46 CFCE 2D97 F8FD 4E23 56C6 FB4B
