[alsa-devel] No sound on MacBook 3.1

[Marco Vermeulen]

Hi all,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I got it working on my  
Macbook. I got hold of Leonardo, and we compared specs (to rule out  
that my machine was some fringe case). It turned out that we had  
identical machines...

Next up I started playing with the module options, restarted the alsa  
daemon and then it worked!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

One last thing: my volume in Linux seems far lower than in OSX. All  
the faders are on max, yet the volume remains low. Any ideas how I  
might boost this?

Thanks again,
Marco.
