Re: Installing Audio on Ultra 5 10 ?

[Vincent Vandeweijer <v.p.vandeweijer@gmail.com>]

I did not get the onboard sound working using the 2.4.27 debian kernel. I had 
to use a seperate soundcard to get sound :(
With the 2.6.12 debian kernel  it worked "out of the box" though.

Good Luck, 

Vincent
