But its onboard sound vendor/device Ids dont match those of the person i was helping. I have double checked the pastebin post, and confirmed the mainboard model with the user though. The _original_ alsa-info.sh run (before the model was forced to 6stack-digout) is as follows.. http://pastebin.ca/1021995 There it shows the vendor/device ids as 0x1043, 0x814e . So according to the current HG code, those IDs would select the "asus" model. Also, in the same, current HG code, we have.. SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x1043, 0x8196, "ASUS P5GD1", ALC880_6ST) This shows the correct model name for the mainboard, but (from my experience) wrong vendor/device ids. Perhaps we have to check with the person who originally added that P5GD1 quirk ? I have made up a patch, but want to confirm all this information before proceeding. Please let me know your thoughts.
