[ILUG] Re: sound on a sony laptop

[ILUG] Re: sound on a sony laptop

No luck.  For some reason the first try at insprobe returns a "device or resource busy" error from init_module too.  Using modprobe seems to load the sb driver but my cd player still seems to think it's working while
no sound comes out of my machine - the same thing that happened while the nm256 driver was failing to load.

Also, the nm256 driver doesn't seem to accept irq=X as an argument.  is claims parm_irq is an invalid parameter.
