[linux-audio-user] Re: The famous "Jack Hum" (Can't record and desparate)

Thanks for caring, Cesare. It's a notebook, but I'll just do it anyway. I already did a little while back to put some thermal paste on the CPU when I was having the Dell Heatwaves a little while back. I also found a CPU cooling management tool for dell books a while bac (i8k), but that won't wrestle thermal control out of the Dell Bios' evil hands. It will only argue (IE Bios will turn fans on, a millisecond later the tool will turn it off, etc.) I'll probably also look into the Open Source bios project to see if I can flash my notebook bios with something new, possibly custom-developed. I'm so desperate to get a working solution out of my old book I'll do just about ANYTHING. Carlo
