LinuxQuestions.org - Audio on Intel DQ67EP

I'm trying to get audio working on a new Intel DQ67EP motherboard.

lspci -v shows:

Code:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)

        Subsystem: Intel Corporation Unknown device 200f

        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 7

        Memory at fa220000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]

        Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2

        Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable-

        Capabilities: [70] Express Root Complex Integrated Endpoint, MSI 00

        Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel <?>

        Capabilities: [130] Root Complex Link <?>

As you can see, there is no kernel module listed. I've built the latest ALSA drivers (alsa-driver-1.0.24), but that didn't change anything.

Googling around, I've learned that 6 Series Chipset blah blah is generally driven by the snd-hda-intel driver. But when I modprobe that, it isn't magically connecting to this audio chip.

My kernel is Linux 2.6.27.8 #1 SMP Thu Sep 23 17:21:53 GMT 2010 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600S CPU @ 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
(derived from Slax 6.0.9)

Is there a place I should be going to find newer drivers?

Or perhaps there is some bleeding edge patch I should be applying?

(Intel's web site is useless. They only give Windows drivers for audio. I did get the ethernet working by using their latest e1000e driver.)

Any ideas?
