Hi Patrick,

Sorry for the delay! Super busy lately...

Sound is not working, there is nothing coming from the headphone jack.
 However, sox looks like it is playing to the dsp device. I do have a
dsp device.

You can find my kernel config here:

http://axim.openfbo.com/kernel

Basically, I enabled the ALSA SoC code with the WM8750 Codec. I did
not enable the ALSA ARM ac97 driver.

And the sox ipk (along with some others) here:

http://axim.openfbo.com/ipks

I just created the axim.openfbo.com sub-domain, so it might take a
couple hours to propagate... If the link doesn't work, try again at
2007-03-14 03:00 UTC.

Cheers,
Matt
