the codec /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 is the same as listed on the page
and i have the kernel 2.6.19rc2. that should contain alsa 1.0.13rc3 as
listed on the page.
if have searched for the patch and i have it, too. :(
so i am not very hopeful. but of course i will try to compile the kernel
for myself.
