A lot of noise in a intel sound card



Hi friends,

I bought a Compaq Presario V2000 laptop and I installed Debian sarge on
it. For now, everything is working, except the sound card. The driver I
am using is intel8x0.

Well, a read a lot of things on the Intenet about this driver and I did
a lot of them but my problem is not solved: when I boot my computer and
try to use my sound card I get a poor quality sound with noises.

I blacklisted intel8x0m module in /etc/hotplug/blacklist according I
read in a tons of maillist archives but this not solve my problem. To
get a good quality sound I need to run alsaconf every time I reboot my
computer. I have noticed a small difference in lsmod output between
after a reboot and after run alsaconf.

I am using Debian sarge with kernel 2.6.8-2-686.

Can anyone provide me some help or hint to solve this?

Follow I put some useful informations:
