Hi folks.
I've just upgraded my laptop (Sony Vaio PCG-GRT996VP) from FC1 where
I had no sound to FC3. I now have sound, with the mixer reporting
the sound driver as SiS S17012. I can't see anything in modules.conf
or modprobe.conf relating to sound though, which is surprising.

The problem I have is that although the volume controls work, the
sound that I hear is stuttered, as though the needle on a record is
sticking.
Anyone know how I fix it?
Sadly there may not be an easy fix for the soundquality... However you
may want to try and search http://alsa.opensrc.org for this card
(which uses the intel8x0 driver) for some driver options you could add
to the modprobe.conf fiile and see if that imporves your sound quality.
You could try changing your mixer settings. I know that if I have the
PCM settings at 100 I get a bit of static coming out of my speakers.
