I have a notebook, and there is no audio driver for this particular model (OSS provides some, but they don't work). I'm just wondering if some people could point me in the right direction for writing my own driver (or editing an existing driver) to get the sound working on my notebook, including good faqs, as I've not writtend any drivers before. And yes, I've verified, no one knows of work, the generic snd driver gives no results, the obvious ich driver does not work, and the OSS drivers cause my system to reboot. Notebook: Toshiba Satellite A105-4001 MB/Graphics Chip: i950 (many refer to this as a moniker for the i945GM) Audio "Codec": Realtek ALC861. Any suggestions, or someone willing to walk me through this? I have the kernel source for my kernel available (6.1-STABLE), and I've glanced over some of the files for sound (well just once, and I could kinda figure out some of the stuff, but it's beyond my current knowledge). I also have the Realtek datasheet on my current sound card. Thanks, -Jim Stapleton
