no sound

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

Previously reported with a custom Alsa configuration. I rebuilt the kernel; I believe this is the standard Alsa config.

You need the model=3stack quirk, because the existing quirk (model=dell-3stack) relies on a non-broken bios containing non-broken verb tables for your HDA codec. Unfortunately, your bios is broken.

I updated my BIOS to 2.4.0, and still no sound.
Where do I add the "model=3stack" quirk?

In a Terminal, try:
echo options snd-hda-intel model=3stack|sudo tee
/etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf

(that's one line that may have a forced newline due to MUA)

I added the line, but still get
aplay: device_list:217: no soundcards found...
Anything else to try? I had sound with Intrepid, and I had sound off and on with Jaunty alpha.
BTW, this is a fresh install, only saving the /home partition
