Description Chris Seawood 2007-09-10 21:34:56 UTC
After upgrading to the latest errata kernels (2.6.22.x), the sigmatel soundcard
in my Dell Dimension 9150 is no longer detected.  I see the following messages
in dmesg:

stac92xx_auto_fill_dac_nids: No available DAC for pin 0x15
hda-intel: no codecs initialized

I had to apply the patches from the following links to get sound working again:

Those patches are already in kernel-2.6.22.5-49.fc6, in the updates-testing
repository.  You can install it with (but see below first):

 # yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update kernel

Increasing the number of kernels that yum keeps installed may be a good idea.
Edit /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf and change "TOKEEP=2" to a larger
number to keep more than two kernels installed.
