Hello Gururaj:

In principle, Intel HDA (High Definition Audio) support is available
with ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture).

However, I have seen suboptimal sound quality and occassional hangs
on Dell & Compaq C300 laptops.

As you would know that almost all OpenSource/GPL v2 drivers are created
by reading the available specs on vendor site, bit of rev engg, it is
quite difficult to match the native drivers since vendor specific details
are not known.

What usually happens is that few months down the line, some new facets of
the hardware become known and then a better OpenSource driver becomes
available.

For the interim, I would suggest that you get your N&S Dept folks to check 
the settings on your laptop by verifying with the information mentioned at
http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-hda-intel

Hope this gets you started.

thanks
Saifi.
