You should not need to reboot. After running depmod, you should be
able to run "modprobe -r snd-card-0" and then "modprobe snd-card-0"
to reload the module with the new options. I did a fair amount of
that when trying to find the model that worked right with my Toshiba.

Thanks for the info Mikkel, and referenced in my notebook.
Whether model=acer works for Yanus may be a bit hit and miss, but worth a
try.

Hi,
My sound problem on ACER TravelMate 6291-100512 has been solved.
Here are steps I did:
1. I downloaded ALSA driver:
alsa-driver-hg20070817.tar.bz2
from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/alsa/snapshot/driver/
2. compiled dan installed the driver
3. added the follow line to /etc/modprobe.conf
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=toshiba
I tried to add the following line to /etc/modprobe.conf
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=acer
but it did not work. It works when I changed the model name to
model=thosiba
Thanks to Nigel & Mikkel that gave me hints.
