Stephan) Thanks, I did not realize it was that easy - for a testbed old
notebook, I think I will simply add to sources.lst - lets see what's
with the Audio

Sergio) fullACK even debian itself is on 2.6.25-something these days in
my virtual machine... (I am thinking about making debian productive in
autumn with next additional net- or subnotebook... to not only rely on
ubuntu... I found openSolaris, fedora, openSuse or sabayon all not that
usable than ubuntu...)... better to put the most current kernel.org
kernel into "proposed" and then test that than a patch of a patch of a
patch of something old... (e.g. rebuilding nvidia drivers etc. is
sometimes required anyway with updates...) BUT: it felt like the
versions 17 to 18 where more "performant" but on a marginal <= 50ms (?)
latency on normal load) base...

Still one thing: nobody tells me, except "Try this patch" - what it
MEANS how to look into the matter etc. remains obscure here. Is that
only reserved for the brightest experts? Why must such a message than a
"hlt" one be so "unexplained"? Does anyone know where to get a better
EXPLANATION of what happened?

And a yes, the 2.6.24-20 from Tim Gardner does break my sound support. A
shame, was the old notebook my preferred way of watching simpsons while
surfing before the evening --- I'm back to .19 and wait for 2.6.25
something... which is sad, I wanted to give the old notebook away as a
gift.. as much up to date as possible... still better than no pc at all
for some, right?
