Re: [MLUG] laptop + sound + general linux rant

[Shawn Parker <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

i have a ibm thinkpad 600x.  i believe they use the same hardware.  my 
sound seems to work fine with red hat, fedora and archlinux.  i've never 
tried to install anything else on this box. 

i don't generally do anything magical to get the sound working.  have 
you have any problems in windows?  sure the hardware is working?
