Sound, RS-232 serial fails on dell latitute D620 notebook...

[Roe Peterson <roe@liveglobalbid.com>]

This is probably a Dell problem, but I'm hoping someone on the list has
seen similar behavior before.

Sound input and RS232 serial input do not function on a Dell Latitude D620.

Details:
- Fedora Core 5 installation, running vanilla kernel.org 2.6.16.16 and 
2.6.18, results
     are identical.  Sound input times out with an I/O error, no serial 
input characters are
     ever seen.  I've tried with and without acpi, apic, and irqpoll, 
and see no different results.

Can anyone point me in some general direction?  I have no problem 
hacking around in
kernel source, but a good start never hurts :-)

Thanks for any assistance.
