no sound w/ 2.6.11.12 (slackware 10.2)

[BattleToad]

Ok, seem to be having some sound issues with my laptop. Just got it and over the weekend installed Slackware 10.2 on it. Had to use the bareacpi kernel when installing because with default kernel x crapped out and with the test26 kernel my touchpad wouldnt work. But with the bareacpi could get into x (with some xorg modifying) and touchpad works fine, which was a good base for me to start. Downloaded the 2.6.16.9 kernel and compiled it, installed it, rebooted and came back into X, sound works. Then I go through a grueling process of trying to get fglrx to work, but kept getting errors, then read that with the latest kernel you might have to patch fglrx, couldnt find a patch, so decided to go to a different kernel. Googled and found some old mailing list stuff about fglrx working with 2.6.11.12, downloaded, compiled, booted, no sound, but tried fglrx and works absolutely perfect. So, here I'm asking for help to get sound working.

I have booted into the 2.6.16.9 kernel and run these too and seem to get similar output, regarding sound anyways, it just seems to work in 2.6.16.9, but no fglrx.

[BattleToad]

recompiled to a 2.6.15.1 kernel and was able to get everything working perfect. w00t!!!
