= Introduction =

Fujitsu's Lifebook S7010D is one of the first in the S7000 line. The D simply means the wireless 802.11g option was chosen. This how-to assumes a 2.6 kernel. All steps should be done as root.

Note: Part of this document was written while following the steps described and some after the fact. Feel free to visit the discussion page or Trevie's (the original author's) talk page if you have any questions or just comments!

= Audio =

lspci calls the audio device the Intel 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 (rev 03). This uses the intel snd_intel8x0 driver. You have two choices for using this: adding the driver to the kernel (built-in or as a module) or by using the Gentoo alsa-drivers package.

(to do: volume buttons)

snd_intel8x0 in the kernel
Above is a good configuration for this sound device. The OSS and old ALSA API options are not required, but are good for backwards compatability. You can also compile the sound device itself as a module. An easy way to do this is to change Sound card support to a module (). If you are not using a module, you're done. If you are using a module, you'll also want to modify your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa file:

You do not need to modify /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 to include snd-intel8x0 as ALSA will find the modules iteself.
