Hi, I just bought a new IBM Thinkpad. And I have some problems with the sound card.
I saw that kernel has an experimental driver for it. I have compiled it, and it seems working fine. The only problem is that it is not loud enough. When I use it in windoze, it is much louder :(. Has anyone else tried out ALSA? Will it work better than the kernel one? I have had a go on ALSA 0.5.6. Follow all the instructions, and the modules seem inserted ok. Here is the cat /proc/modules output: snd-es1938 12520 0 (unused) snd-pcm 28824 0 [snd-es1938] snd-timer 7840 0 [snd-pcm] snd-mixer 22704 0 [snd-es1938] snd 34380 0 [snd-es1938 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-mixer] ltmodem 453168 1 ppp 19596 2 slhc 4300 1 [ppp] soundcore 2328 4 [snd] ntfs 34748 1 However, cat /proc/asound/cards still says --- no soundcards --- Thanks for any help in advance.
