can't get sound on gateway mx8711 laptop with intel 82801G

  i've been fighting for the last few hours, and exchanging some
posts on the fedora test mailing list, trying to get functioning sound
on my gateway laptop.  i'm an alsa newbie, so please take that into
account.

  yesterday, i installed f8-t1 on this gateway mx8711 and, during the
install, the sound test worked fine.  since then, nothing.

  running "system-config-soundcard" displays the following:

  Vendor: Intel Corporation
  Model: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
  Module:snd-hda-intel

  Device settings
    PCM Device  STAC92XX Analog

  originally, /etc/modprobe.conf contained the line:

    options snd-hda-intel index=0

but based on what i read in the ALSA config file, i matched the laptop
and model and changed that to read:

    options snd-hda-intel model=m2-2

so far, nothing's worked, so i'm definitely open to suggestions.

  as a start, if one wanted to report a non-working sound card, what
is the minimal amount of info to supply?  what files should be listed?
what commands run?  and so on.  thanks.

rday

p.s.  i also suppose a decent tutorial on ALSA architecture wouldn't
hurt.  any pointers?
