intel8x0 working better in kernel 2.6.3-gentoo-r2

[Joel Metelius <joel.metelius@home.se>]

But there is still some issues:

Before I had to use "duplicate front" and "line-in as surround", and all
sound I got was from line-in.

Now I get sound from main speakers and with better quality than before
(using headphones), so far very good! But If I keep the setting as
before there is squeeking noice on line-out (besides the music). And one
time the sound just dissapeared and I had to restart alsa. The quality
is also very bad if PCM is above 75% even if MASTER is low. Is that
expected?

I can give more if anyone is interested.

Does it matter if i810_audio and ac97_codec is loaded as a modules as
well?
