This page is littered with mistakes, here are some facts:
 
  
−
* The ThinkPad 600, 600D, 770, 770D, 770E and 770ED have only an ISA based CS4237B
 
−
* The ThinkPad 600E, 770X and 770Z have an ISA CS4239 and PCI CS4610
 
−
* The ThinkPad 600X has both an ISA CS4297A and PCI CS4624
 
−
 
−
The ISA soundchips are meant for SoundBlaster compatibility in DOS (and possibly WinNT4), and should not be used in modern operating systems, unless you have no other choice.
 
−
 
−
===PCI CS46xx===
 
−
For the ThinkPad's with the PCI based CS4610 or CS4624, try to use the ALSA snd-cs46xx or OSS cs46xx kernel module. No special kernel options should be needed by either kernel module.
 
−
 
−
===ISA CS4237B===
 
−
If all you have is the CS4237B, you will need to use the ALSA snd-cs4236 or OSS cs4232 kernel module, with the following options:
 
−
 
−
====ALSA options====
 
−
options snd-cs4236 snd_index=0 snd_port=0x530 snd_cport=0x538 snd_isapnp=0 snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=0 snd_irq=5
 
−
 
−
====OSS options====
 
−
options cs4232 io=0x530 irq=5 dma=1 dma2=0
