snd-intel8x0

snd-intel8x0m

and that will fix the problem?

Only the snd-intel8x0m should be blacklisted.

I am currently using Slackware 10.1 on a Thinkpad T40 with the 2.6.11.2 kernel and I am using the snd_intel8x0 and snd_intel8x0m modules. When playing with it, I noticed that when I removed both, then added the sound, then added the modem (in that order), then they both worked. So I added this to my rc.local file:

Code:

echo "Starting Modem&#58;  /sbin/slmodemd --alsa"
modprobe -r snd_intel8x0
modprobe -r snd_intel8x0m
modprobe snd_intel8x0
modprobe snd_intel8x0m
/usr/sbin/slmodemd --alsa &
sleep 5

Since I did this, it all works fine. Give this a shot and let me know what happens. Unfortunately, I do not have the time to figure out why this works.

In addition to the steps taken here, make sure that you mute "Headphone Jack Sense" and "Line Jack Sense" in alsamixer. On my Thinkpad R51, I still could not get sound until I did that.
