dmesg supports the advice below with comments such as Sound Fusion CS46xx soundcard not found or device busy cs46xx: Card found at 0x501 and 0x500..., IRQ 11 cs46xx: Thinkpad 600E (unsuported) ..., IRQ 11 cs46xx: probably not a bug, try using the CS4232 driver
OK, How do I verify that I have the CS4232 driver then and, Can I simply replace the cs46xx with cs4232 in the modules.conf. (sorry for the top-post) Kyle At 01:20 AM 11/20/2002 -0600, Kyle Hamar wrote:

Your suggestions are most appreciated Kevin.
I have modified my modules.conf as requested but have a concern:
I get an error when manually loading the driver via
root]# modprobe snd-cs46xx
/lib/modules/2.4.19.../.../cs46xx/snd-cs46xx.o.gz: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
Does this mean I am simply missing some parameters in modules.conf to make the driver work? Or, is the driver broken in some way?
Others suggest success with the cs4232 driver but I have no idea how to verify that I have it available. (modprobe snd-cs4232 gives the same error as above btw.)
Much has been written on getting sound to work on the Thinkpad 600e including:
alias char-major-116 sndThis suggestion is confusing to me. Does snd-card-cs4232 have a relationship to drive cs4232? Or, should I just ingore this bit of advice from http://www.levien.com/tp600.html ?
alias snd-card-0 snd-card-cs4232
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm1-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm1-oss
options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 snd_device_mode=0666 snd_device_gid=0 snd_device_uid=0
alias sound snd-card-cs4236
options snd-card-cs4236 snd_port=0x530 snd_cport=0x538 snd_mpu_port=-1 snd_fm_port=0x388 snd_irq=5 snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=0
Note: the above configuration works just fine for me. However, Thomas Hood reports that changing the "alias snd-card-0 snd-card-cs4232" line to snd-card-cs4236 works much better for him - the old config caused some freezes. Your experiences either way are welcome.
IBM (http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/MIGR-4BP6Q6.html) instructs the user to run sndconfig and specify the Crystal CS423x sound chip. My Mandrake9 basic install does not appear to include sndconfig.
Please give me a few more suggestions to troubleshoot my "no sound" problem.
