Wei, Peer, could you regenerate the patch based on the latest sound git tree? git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound-2.6.git or use the snapshot tarball from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/tiwai/snapshot/ This already contains the fix for the 4th slot probe on Nvidia chipset. thanks, Takashi ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential information.
