Module Options

If you have an IBM Thinkpad 360, 750, 755, or 755C with a Crystal CS4248 audio chip, the module options are:

snd-ad1848 port=0x4e30 irq=10 dma1=0 thinkpad=1

The "thinkpad" option was recently added to the driver and is required to initialize the audio chip on these laptops.

If you are not sure if you have this chip, you can open the thinkpad and in the upper left corner (near the headphone outputs & speaker) there will be a little board with the following components:

IBM part numbers on the sound board:

Setting up modprobe and kmod support

NB. Before you send a mail complaining that "I don't have /etc/modules.conf, where do I find it ....." ,The /etc/conf.modules has been deprecated with a few distro's so in your case, it may still be /etc/conf.modules. Basically they are both same, but recent version of modutils uses /etc/modules.conf instead. Nothing to worry about as such, optionally please update to latest version of modutils. This should solve your problem.

Here's the example for this card. Copy and paste this to the bottom of your /etc/modules.conf file.

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-ad1848
options snd-ad1848  

# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

To copy and paste the above to your /etc/modules.conf file follow these instructions.
