[tlinux-users:08568] Re: Tips for debugging sound problems?

Thanks for the clue.  My sound works in Windows but not Linux, too. I thought it was me.

some regressions in the kernel that got introduced about 2.6.20 for
the snd_hda_intel module. Basically it was no longer automatically
detecting the correct card when the module was loading.

I found more on the ubuntu wiki (wiki.ubuntu.com) and there is a bug
filed in launchpad
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/83015)
that has a workaround, but basically I followed the steps from the
section "Manually specify which model you are using" at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto but I used
model=auto instead of model=3stack and that fixed my sound problems.
