My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4477
I had previously posted about getting sound to work… the problem was that when you plugged headphones the laptop speakers would still be on and if you muted them the headphones muted… Today I dug around and found a simple solution that really works…
add the follwing line to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo

The headphone jack on my laptop wasn’t working in fedora 10 so I did a little bit of reading today and found this solution:
add the following to /etc/modprobe.conf
options snd-hda-intel model=6stack-digout
by the way, the soundcard is an intel HDA

I had no idea how cool an interface could be. I was going to install AfterStep but I kept seeing people talk about Beryl. So what do I do? TRY IT.
Beryl has features such as hotkeys and and desktop switching that go much further than anything else I’ve used. On top of that, the window and desktop switching looks amazing… Desktops on a 3D cube and a killer alt-tab; AWESOME.
