Hello. This chipset is the default for fairly recent IBM machines (ie: 733Mhz P3, VIA Apollo pro 133A chipset) that use the '300PL' model designation. I've done some hunting in the mail archives to try and determine whether this chipset is supported. the standard 'pcm' kernel sound option does not see this chipset. I'm also fairly sure that I tried the ESS driver a while ago with no success. What pricked my interest in this recently was when I was doing a kernel rebuild. As I was doing the make process I noticed a number of subdirectory names scroll off screen. I'm pretty sure one of them was the card in the subject line above. I'm not at my work machine at the moment so I can't verify this. I'm wondering if anyone knows about how to get sound enabled for this chipset? I noticed there is also a recent query about this in the multimedia list whereby the chipset (or something very similar) was in a dell laptop. As that poster experienced I don't get any identificatin for the card in 'dmesg' - just a reference to 'unknown card' Any clues? In particular - does anyone have an idea what I saw flash past when I was making a new kernel was about? Many thanks. Paul http://briefcase.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo! Briefcase - Manage your files online.
