Thank you Stephen. Blacklisting both snd-cs4232 AND snd-wavefront is indeed key. I now have working sound using the original Lenny kernel :-)
Below are the contents of the file I created (/etc/modprobe.d/crystal_4237b_fix) to achieve this. I consider this an appropriate workaround for the bug; perhaps this means the severity should be lowered because of this? ========================================================================== # <MANCONFIG> # This file /etc/modprobe.d/crystal_4237b_fix, enables the Crystal 4237b # sound chip to work correctly under Debian Lenny using the default # 2.6.26 kernel on a Dell CPi D266XT laptop. (Not all of the soundcard's # features have been tested, such as midi playback, but alsamixer and # aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Left.wav work). # # It provides a workaround for bug Debian #529697, see: # http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=529697 # blacklist snd_cs4232 blacklist snd_wavefront alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 #alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss options snd cards_limit=1 options snd-cs4236 index=0 id=CARD_0 port=0x530 cport=0x210 irq=5 dma1=1 dma2=0 enable=1 mpu_port=0x330 isapnp=0 fm_port=0x388 mpu_irq=7 ========================================================================== -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
