The driver is one of the ones Alsa Setup tries to setup from the "Legacy ISA" menu.. If you do a "lsmod" it shows up as "snd-sb8".

Well I have just booted up via USB pen for the first time on my CF-27 Toughbook just to check out if the sound worked, which it did... Would you by chance know what sound card is detected during the start up if at all?

I know when I first had sound problems on kernel 2.4.29 with a slackware derivative I just had to make sure that I had ALSA correctly installed and configured. I remember seeing ALSA something in the MyDSL section which would be my first recommendation if you havn't figured the problem out by now...

To all others who want a Toughbook, I would recommend them 100%! They are awesome, talk about tough! Plus mine includes a touchscreen which of course makes it that much cooler! This thing is solid, built mostly out of a magnesium alloy, it is also almost totally water proof and the hard drive is mounted inside a half centimeter of gel so it keeps on ticking even if you drop it from a meter up! Plus I hear a toughbook stopped a bullet for some guy in Iraq, so if I ever get shot at again I now have a little more protection...

Nah ive been working on it for a while I still get lockups. It doesnt find my sound on boot gets errors. Now if I install Knoppix which runs really slow on this laptop sound works outa the box. DSL is just so fast on this its really the linux of choice for this laptop.

John I just sent you an email. I can help you get it working. I am windancerxb on aim if you would rather chat in real time. Also how much ram does your cf-25 have? mine is maxed at 96 megs. I have also done the bios update so I can boot to a cd which really helps alot. Anyway contact me we will see if we can get it working. I also would highly recommend that you pick of a linksys wpc11 on ebay for about 10 bucks for wireless internet as it works perfect on dsl. of course if you dont have wireless access then a card plugged would be fine too
