all,

Sound is finally working for both my Ntavo 6020A thin client and for my
Compaq Ipaq's with the 1810 chipset. This little package seems to be what
did the trick:

At least it what got stuff finally working for me after I had gone through
the steps here: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/Sound

For folks who come after with similar problems, I am running Ubuntu
LTS 6.06and LTSP
4.2

My thanks to all for the assistance! I really appreciate it. I am jazzed!

John
