I installed FC3, (clean install) to my new laptop. It is an HP DV1040US. I have managed to get most everything working so far except the sound. I am current on all upgrades and running the .681 kernel.
When I boot, no sound and after a few seconds. Error - artsmessage sound server fatal errror: cpu overload, aborting.
system settings/soundcard detection shows:
Vendor: Intel Model 82801DB.DBL/DMB (ICCH4/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller
Module: snd-intel8x0
When I press Play test sound, nothing is heard.
The install was a KDE only install. Other than that nothing particularly special.

Add this line to the /etc/hotplug/blacklist file.
snd-intel8x0m
now reboot and you sound should be just fine. Makre sure to run alsamixer to check the sound levels.
