Chris,
I have a Sony Vaio, which also has the i810 sound. I was getting static
at high volumes until I moved to the alsa drivers. The other system was
occasional playback at high speed. Funny, but annoying.
Download and compile the alsa-driver package as others have mentioned.
You'll probably need to do something like the following, "configure
--with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.3; make install"
I modified /etc/modules.conf to look like the following:
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-intel8x0
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-card-intel8x0
post-install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L
>/dev/null 2>&1 || :
pre-remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S
>/dev/null 2>&1 || :
For some reason, I couldn't get the post-install lines to do a modprobe,
so I ended up using rc.modules. Unless I'm mistaken, you should be able
to do something like the following in modules.conf:
post-install sound-slot-0 /sbin/modprobe snd=pcm-oss
That didn't work for me, so here's my /etc/rc.modules
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss
/sbin/modprobe snd-mixer-oss
Seems to work fine for me now, the native Gnome mixer works great, no
need for the additional alsa-utils stuff.
Hope some of this helps...
