soundcard not configurable on ibm thinkpad 600e
Last modified: 2007-02-16 14:20:09 UTC
Straight after installation and later on in YAST the CS4610 soundcard is recognised correctly. Click on "edit" and a pop-up tells you that you have a tp600e and that a CS4236 driver would be better. Unfortunately neither driver work, saying that kernel module snd-cs46xx (in both cases) could not be loaded.
First, please note that the ISA sound drivers are no longer supported by Novell. It is provided as is in the mainstream. It's a bit tough problem because the laptop has a cs46xx chip but internally connected to (ISA) cs4236 chip. The first thing is to know the correct parameters for ISA cs4236 chip. It might be listed in the PnP BIOS. Could you check whether /sys/bus/pnp/deivces/*/device file contains the ID beginning with "CSC"? If any entry is found, please attach the content of "resources" file there.
No reaction on this bug for a long time. Closing as CANTFIX.
