Fun, ok.

There's some sort of binary information.

Actually, I played with things a little more, and dug a little deeper
into what the ubuntu forums say, and it turned out that I made a stupid
mistake, I typoed mbp3 as mpb3 when testing it.

Now, I actually get sound with model=mbp3, but the controls are all
wrong, e.g. line-out controls the built-in speakers, and the speaker
on/off control doesn't do anything to the speakers. Also, I need to turn
up the volumes pretty much to max to get any output at all, which seems
a little strange. I'll try to figure out what the controls really are
and see if I can make a new model that links it all up correctly.

Anyway, sorry for the bother and thanks for all the help.

In other news, I've got a new aoa patch that actually works on the older
models, but so far doesn't fix the quiet sound problem either, I'm still
working with Andreas on that. And I'm also working with somebody else to
get optical output on topaz-based machines.
