Ok, just want to know if anything came of this, I have the Omnibook 4100 and I can't get sound working at all. You said you had to mess with the IRQ's? chip
This website tells me to expect a Crystal CS4237B rev E audio chip, however lspci tells me its a Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 [MagicMedia 256AV audio] (rev12). The drivers aren't working in linux and I'm going to go insane, you said you had it working, could you please explain, in detail, using small words (lol) how you managed it? Thanks man.
