[ltp] T42 sound driver not working with 2.6.11

[Eric Van Buggenhaut]

Hi,

I just compiled a kernel from the recently released 2.6.11 source.
My snd_intel8x0 sound card is totally mute when I play any sound file.

Is anyone aware of a broken sound driver in 2.6.11 ?

I pretty sure the problem is with the kernel, because when I boot from 
the old 2.6.10 I used before, the sound card works perfectly.

This is the diff between the config of the 2 kernels, the big change 
is basically that I added the nsc-ircc module (and thus activated ISA) 
as someone suggested in another post some days ago (instead of 
sir-dev).

Could the irda driver possibly keep the sound card from working ?

Here's the diff:
