Then you have got a wrong problem....." =======POWER OF OPEN SOURCE======== "If you win, you need not have to explain.... If you loose, you should not be there to explain!" --Adolf Hitler Can you please repeat what you did here but answering yes instead of default no at the following place: Would you like to use the replacement HDA modules? [no] Or, even better, may I suggest that you open http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/hsf/index.php, then find the HSF menu on the left side of the page, click on Readme, find the HDA area in the new page displayed, and follow the instructions? When downloading the "alsa" driver you can take the precompiled file for your kernel (the last in the list).
