In your package manager be sure that you have the last header:

Then open your menu.lst

And add one entry with the last kernel, like this:

Instead xxx you have to insert your uuid (the same of the old entry of JJ)

PS: Keep, for safe, the old entry too.

Bottom line is:
Go to System > Admin > Hardware Drivers.
Disable the Modem Software driver.

There is more info in the thread, including a link to http://drowninginbugs.blogspot.com/2009/10/caveats-for-audio-in-910.html, with more options to get your audio working in 9.10.

Im now using ubuntu 10.04 and that more or less solved the problem. My
only problem know is that ubuntu doesnt automatically detect the use of
headphones. I have to do this manually in sound setting.

Have a great summer, Martin
