[ltp] a21p sound woes.

[Robert Nicholson]

Any kernel not compiled by Mandrake ie. including their USB/PS/2 patches
will fix this problem. So for instance anybody who grabs 2.4.3 from
linux.org can compile a working kernel with mouse support. it's just that
Mandrake broke PS/2 mouse support for Thinkpads when they applied their own
patches.
