Working sound cards on PLD Linux 1.99 i386 (kernel: 2.6.14.3-1) by emes (-3):

Output works fine, but I haven’t managed to make a microphone working.

Working sound cards on Gentoo Gentoo Base System release 1.12.9 GenuineIntel (kernel: 2.6.22-gentoo-r8) by phouska (5):

I had to load the module snd-cs46xx manually, but otherwise ok. For microphone, don’t forget to unmute ADC/DAC, otherwise it won’t work.

Working sound cards on Arch Linux Arch Linux \r (\n) (\l) GenuineIntel (kernel: 2.6.27-ARCH) by engored (5):

However, cs46xx module have some bug: sometimes (very rarely) sound is noisy and you should stop/start the sound source (e.g. press stop & play in your music player) to fix this.
