[K12OSN] How to get sound on GX260/270

[Tom Wolfe]

Hi Theo, thanks for the heads up. We haven't had any issues with our own 
stock of GX270/280s that we bought new years ago apart from replacing all 
85 motherboards (on warranty thank goodness) due to faulty capacitors.

... have you done anything with the sound on your "loads" of GX260s? 
Because that's the issue I'm having right now...

Regards,
Tom Wolfe
