BTW - thanks for the steps loliverouge! Much nicer than my original

toshiba p100 series dsdt acpi error no sound, works with acpi turned
The problem is with kernel 2.6.22. There were a modification in
drivers/acpi/ec.c that makes all kernel 2.6.22 useless with toshiba P100
notebooks. Ubuntu 7.10 backported patches from 2.6.23 in their 2.6.22 kernel.
From now, one of the solution modify kernel sources.
I just wrote to the
To RobA:
I'm not even using ubuntu, but mandriva 2008.0. I wanted to share my discovery

I made my toshiba p100 (PSPA3C-MA502C) works with 2.6.23.1 vanilla kernel. I

kernel 2.6.23. Sound is working without custom DSDT, but i don't want to
overheat my laptop...

This bug must be reported to kernels devs, because it affects kernel 2.6.23, so
basically, every person who wants to install this kernel will face this bug and
if it's not corrected, it will be in 2.6.24!!
The dirty hack proposed might make something else work wrong. The lines
erased were
I think i may have some answers about this bug.
I own a toshiba P100, so i know about the problem and custom DSDT.
Last summer, i was using Arch Linux and when kernel 2.6.22 was out for Arch, i
installed it on my laptop and lost sound, even if my DSDT file was ok.
I decided to check on patched
