When I run the alsa-info.sh script, this is the output I get.

!!Kernel Information
!!------------------

Kernel release:    2.6.29.6-217.2.7.fc11.x86_64
Operating System:  GNU/Linux
Architecture:      x86_64
Processor:         x86_64
SMP Enabled:       Yes


!!ALSA Version
!!------------

Driver version:     1.0.18a
Library version:    1.0.20
Utilities version:  1.0.20


There is no package for the drivers pulled up in an rpm query.  I
assumed that the reason they didn't have the 1.0.20 drivers installed
was an incompatibility with the kernel for some hardware.  I can't think
of another reason they wouldn't be using the latest stable version.
They obviously know about it since they have the library and utilities
installed.


Thee driver is a bunch of kernel modules, which are part of the kernel.

Unfortunately, the only time Fedora upgraded the driver
in a kernel, they used the 1.0.18, the buggiest
alsa driver ever. Therefore, they will not do it again. They
will use whatever version comes in the kernel.


Hello, it's me again :)

i don't remember if I reported that sound from headphones works when I added line: options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6 to modprobe.d/dist.conf. it's so weird for me. any other hints? :)
