Interesting - yes model=auto works great and removing the model= altogether goes back to being broken.
(Hint: If you are doing this test by modprobe'ing the module back in remember to remove the option entry you added to the modprobe.d ! It fooled me the first few times!) Does that mean there is something overriding the default auto behaviour? For reference the laptop is a Toshiba Equium A100-306; I've attached the output of dmidecode; it really looks like it is an Intel reference design tweaked (I love the fun bits left in like the 52U enclosure and 18 power cords - a bit excessive for a laptop). ** Attachment added: "dmi" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9197454/dmi -- [gutsy] Sound very quiet (Intel 82801G/ALC861) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138322 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
