Comment 68 for bug 318942

I've just tried 9.04 final and this is not fixed. The thing is:

With a vanilla kernel 2.6.28 sound doesn't work on this laptop (upstream problem). With a vanilla 2.6.29 sound works. So the fixes need to be backported. For example, openSUSE (and SLED) have backported the fixes to 2.6.27. I'll attach that big patch with all the fixes in case it's useful for anyone in charge of solving this (it is openSUSE's patch for 2.6.27, just for reference!).
