Which new chip ? The tumbler in the iBook2 ? Worked with 0.5.11 (or was
it .12), and also works with 0.9rc1 (current 0.9 release in debian).

The volume also behaves better than the one in dmasound_pmac. Using the
native ALSA stuff still sucks quite a lot (developer docs not very
useful, weird alsalib bugs), but the OSS emulation works just fine.
