no sound Fedora 11 installed on Toshiba Tecra A10

Hi,
I have been trying for a while to get sound to work on my Toshiba Tecra A10 for the installed Fedora 11. Nothing is muted, so I think maybe the problem is that the sound card is not detected properly.
the following web link is information about the alsa player
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=7b...c9121eedac00f4
I would really appreciate any help, I am a new linux user and I am enjoying using linux (except sound isn't working!)
Thanks

Where does that "3stack" come from? Was it automatically chosen by your distribution, or did you add it?
Try replacing it with "toshiba" or "auto".

This depends on the distribution, but should be in some file in /etc/modprobe.d/.

Did you reload the drivers (or reboot) after changing that setting?
