Hi,

I've got a new laptop here with a chipset that isn't currently properly identified/configured by linux (it's Intel 845MP based - specifically, Linux doesn't recognise the ISA bridge component which controls sound card etc.).

I'd like to fix this up myself so I was wondering if someone could give me some pointers to bits of kernel code/documentation I should be looking at before undertaking this work?

Thanks,

Dan.

I pushed the ICH4 (845) audio patch to Marcelo yesterday. It's in the -ac tree. Basically it just adds PCI identifiers
