Hiya, list...
I have a user at my site that is running an Armada 7800 laptop and would
like to run Linux on it. We've been able to track down the specs from
Compaq's site, but as yet, we've had nothing but grief trying to configure
sound (the machine uses a supported chipset for sound, an ES1371 I think,
but I know two soundcards with the same chip can handle things as
differently as night and day). I've been looking out and about for
information about this, but still no luck - has anyone on this list tried
this machine and gotten everything to work like they wanted?
advTHANKSance,
-cr-

Hello there,
I had no problems using the sound. To see the exacy spec it is shipped
with boot the laptop from the diagnose partition with F10 during boot.
If you erased that one and you are running the kernal that came with
your distro try the OSS drivers, otherwise try alsa and runs alsaconf.
Then edit /etc/conf.modules At the bottom are the lines inserted by
alsaconf.
Remove the parameters for io and such and reboot (really reboot) then in
an terminal run alsa-mixer and adjust and then sound should work.
Here is the part of my /etc/modules.conf
The tabulated lines shoud be at the end of the previous line..
