You don't have to have a DOS partition (unless you want to be able to use
hte hibernate feature pf your Thinkpad), but you can use a floppy with
DOS (and PS2.EXE) on it to change BIOS settings.

Alternatively, you can just try various combinations of the settings
until you hit one that gives you sound. :)

By the way, this assumes also that you have the sound turned up via the
fn-pageup key - on the 600 at least.  Otherwise, you won't hear any
sounds at all, even if the card's set up correctly.)

I've never been able to get tpctl to work reliably, so I can't tell you
anything about it.
