Sorry for the delay in following up on this, busy with school & work :(
I changed the option line so that it matches the one given below by Keith which is 'known' to work on Dell Latitude CP laptops, and the results do not change. modprobing the driver still returns no such device or device is busy. Tried alsaconf again, no luck. Is it safe to conclude that linux + the Cirrus Logic card in the Dell Latitude CP M233ST just don't like each other? I wonder if the card even works... perhaps i should install windows to verify that it does indeed still work (it has been about 8 months since windows was last on this laptop, at which point sound did work properly). Is there any way to derive information about the card from a working windows driver? Thank you for your help with this keith & everyone :] even if nothing comes from it, at least we tried! -smthmlk On Fri, 2004-02-27 at 17:12, Keith Duthie wrote: > On Fri, 27 Feb 2004, smoothmilk wrote: > > > CS4232 soundcard not found or device busy > > CS4232 soundcard not found or device busy > > CS4232 control port features are not accessible > > > > Is that a clue? > > Probably ;-) > > > I've also checked in the bios for pnp options and there are none (such > > as enable pnp or anything of the sort). > > After looking into things a little more, apparently the dell machines with > the cs4237b chip don't do pnp with it.
