I had some trouble too, running Slackware. Sound would not work
with the default kernel. I compiled my own 2.6.22.1 kernel, and
sound worked, but the "thumbcontrol" for volume, wouldn't work in KDE.
The thumbcontrol worked with Slackware 11.
Rexima worked (a mixer setting program), but alsamixer failed with
an error about the "Capture Switch appears twice or more".

So it works with kenel 2.6.22.1, but with some glitches.
