 !!!Sound 
 ! Thinkpad 600E 
 The sound-card on a Thinkpad 600E needs the snd-cs4236 module if using [ALSA], despite the card claiming to be a 46xx (and using a module named cs4232 in the older [OSS] driver series). 
 The snd-46xx module is for [PCI] sound cards that use the 4610 chip, which the Thinkpad has, but it explicitly says it doesn't support these soundcards. The snd-cs4236 module is the [ALSA] module under [ISA] cards. 
+  
+If you are running a Debian or Ubuntu-based system,  
+add "snd-cs4236" to the /etc/modules file (create it if it doesn't exist) so that this module is automatically loaded on boot.  
  
 I have the following snippet in /etc/modprobe.d/sound: 
 <verbatim> 
 options snd-cs4236 isapnp=0 port=0x530 cport=0x538 irq=5 \
