Just want to re-iterate this, which may have been buried in another
thread:


Most sound works well on my ThinkPad T61, except that the volume buttons
don't control volume level.  The mute button mutes, and the volume
buttons unmute, but volume doesn't change.  Also, lowering volume to
minimum turns on the mute indicator in the volume-level pop-up (even
though it's not muted), but the mute button doesn't.  Software sliders
in gnome-volume-control and system-config-soundcard do work.

This is now with kernel-2.6.23.1-41.fc8 and alsa-lib-1.0.1501.fc8 (x86_64).
