[ltp] cs46xx issues on an IBM thinkpad T-20

[Tod Harter]

Gnome uses esd. ESD should already be installed with recent versions of Red 
Hat. I'm honestly not sure if its based on OSS or ALSA though since I use 
Mandrake, which is totally ALSA/ARTSD based. Personally from the limited 
experience I have with sound on RH, and desktop stuff on RH in general, I'm 
glad I put Mandrake on my desktop/laptop. Sound hasn't been an issue in quite 
a while. MDK 8.2 and 9.0 both have no trouble with the CS42xx and CS46xx 
series chips. 

Anyway, the upshot is that the RPM you're seeking probably just doesn't exist.
