I recently obtained an HP Omnibook XE2 laptop. It's a reasonably
nicely-specced machine, although (unsuprsingly) the hardware isn't too
well supported with Linux.
I've given up on the internal modem (I'm 90% sure it's some kind of
software modem, and I have an external anyway), but I'm trying to get
some sort of audio to work via the internal sound device.
Here's the output of 'lspci':

I'm currently using 2.2.14 (plus whichever patches RH added for their 6.2
release), and it doesn't seem to be supported. So.. simple question, does
anybody know if this 'card' is supported in a more recent kernel, or
whether there's something in 2.2.14 that works?
[As an aside, from watching Windows boot, it seems to have some sort of
SoundBlaster compatibility, although it seems to lack MPU401 support or
emulation - and any attempts to use the Linux soundblaster stuff seems to
fail miserably :/]
Any hints/clues/etc welcome.
Many thanks,
Mo.
