SOLUTION Re: Intel 82801 sound chip on Dell Optiplex GX110

[dave <David OCallaghan ul ie>]

Not sure if I should call this a solution but it works now :-)
1) Started with a fresh install
2) cd /usr/src/linux
3) make menuconfig
4) select sound and change sound support to be built in
5) select the Intel driver to be built in
6) recompile and everything works

I have no idea why it wouldn't work before it does now. Human error I'm sure.
Thanks for the help.
