Hello,

upgrading from SL5 to SL6 I have several problems but mainly:

1) On a Dell Latitude E6500
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio 
Controller (rev 03)

Laptops are always a bit of an adventure. Is there any particular
reason you're not leapfrogging to SL 7, which is likelier to have
better support for audio chipsets?

even after

modprobe pcspkr
alsamixer (unmute beep)

I have no beep sound.

But note that it works on a Dell Vostro 1510
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio 
Controller (rev 03)

and it also works on a Dell precision 390
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High Definition Audio 
Controller (rev 01)


Have you tried installing kmod-alsa from ELrepo? I found this got sound working on SL5 for several of my newer motherboards. I suspect the same for SL6. I did, however leapfrog from 5 to 7. There is a bit of a learning curve (systemd, etc), but it isn't really that horrible once you spend a few days with it.
