Re: FC6 failed to detect sound card after kernel upgraded

[Barry Yu <barryyu-cts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I upgraded it because I assume that any upgrade is supposed for 
improvement in some way for some functionality, to make things work 
better - Unless there is a condition specified that such upgrade is not 
suitable for a particular device or usage, otherwise I have to assume 
that any fedora user will do the upgrade by using the yum update in 
order to make the system up today for optimum system performance.
