=09you should disable the PCIbusPowerManage in the CMOS with help=
 of ps2.exe
fuction under windows(dos), Then use sndconfig to configure you=
 sndcard.
=09I have a TP600 , And have the same problem ,after disable=
 PCIbusPower, 
everything works quite good.

>I have a 600e Thinkpad (366/128MB/6.5GB) and have installed=
 Mandrake 8.2
>
>It was fine to install and is all working, except for sound and=
 the modem.
>I found the modem driver that IBM made, and built it, but kept=
 getting an
>error trying to load it.
>I just don't know with the sound - I had SUSE 7.3 on and the=
 sound worked
>for MP3 and WAV, but
>CD's wouldn't play, and I couldn't get my network card to work,=
 so I
>installed Mandrake.
>Same problems but network works and no sound at all.
>I tried recompiling the kernel (as I read somewhere that I have=
 to recompile
>for APM to work)
>but I kept getting errors, and it broke more than it fixed both=
 attempts I
>made, then of course my
>original kernel had problems because all the modules were=
 different, so I
>rebuilt mandrake again.
>So, that's the background, I have a working Mandrake 8.2 with=
 Network
>connection and APM seems to work - though I've not recompiled=
 the kernel.
>Question remains - can I get the Modem to work, and can I get=
 sound to work?
>The alternative is that I just put Win2000 on so that everything=
 works out
>of the box - but I'd rather stay the OSS route as the licence=
 for 2000 is
>expensive.
>
>If I have to recompile the kernel, I'd appreciate some advice=
 (or a config
>file) that will give me the right options.

>many thanks in advance for any help
