I can't get my sound working running slackware 9.1 (updated to current using swaret) on a toshiba m35-s359 laptop. I have had the sound working during previous installations so, I'm sure it's supported. I booted up into windows to see which driver is being used there. Windows uses:
Intel(r) 82801DB/DBM/DA AC '97 Audio Controller
I haven't been able to find a linux driver for my card.
From what I read, it seems that maybe I should be using the i810 driver??? I don't know... I'm a big linux newb. I think that the i810 driver is what is installed, or is attempted to be installed.
When I run alsaconf, it says that no plug-n-play sound card can be found. I was looking in /var/log/syslog and saw a bunch of "failures" relating to i810.
Here are a couple sections from that file... I'm not sure if it's helpful to anyone or not. The second section goes on repeating for quite a while.
