Comments/Problems: Sound not working, SATA hard disk not recognized as SATA

Description of the install:
Here's the "history" of this install: I first bought the "Official debian
CD's" from ikarios in France (14 CDs). I had several problems with these:
choosing the 2.6 kernel version my cdrom was not correctly detected (with
linux26 and expert26) and I couldn't go ahead. Using linux or expert to
install I could not use GRUB as bootloader (installer stopped during GRUB
install). So I installed sarge with 2.4.27-1-386 kernel and lilo bootloader.
After some work I managed to get my graphic card (ATI Radeon X300 SE)
properly working and my DSL connexion as well. Two problems could not be
solved: Sound was not working and when shutting down the machine I had to
push the on/off switch to really shut down the PC (and in fact it seemed not
to be really shut down as I could reboot by hitting any key on my keyboard).
I came after this to think (browsing among different help forums, debian
archives,...)that:
1) my motherboard sound chipset (Intel High Definition Audio ICH6 controller
and Realtek ALC880 chip) would be better recognised under 2.6 kernel (alsa
1.0.8 integrated)
2) the same 2.6 kernel would better work with ACPI and solve my shutdown
problem
I found that my netinst CD (from the debian book) was able to install 2.6.7
kernel using linux26. This is the new install from which I write down this
install report. The install was globally OK and I was happy to see that the
shutdown was now clean. I used my DSL connexion to download useful packages
(graphical (kde) environment and special packages for the ATI card, also
alsa-base and other sound packages in order to get sound working). But my
sound problem remains...and I still don't see how to solve it. Any help would
be greatly appreciated !!! Alsaconf doesn't seems to recognise my ICH6 audio
controller. Unhappily I'm not expert enough to compile my own kernel and use
it, and even not knowing if this could solve my sound problem. I'll give more
info of my config on demand (I don't know what is usefull)
Thak's in advance for any help.
F.Baldit.
