Any patches for 2.4.9: Cirrus Logic Crystal CS4281 PCI Audio?

[jamal]

Ive asked google and some knowledgeable people. Ive hacked the driver code
to increase the timeouts. Alas, no luck. Does anyone have a cure for this?
My spanky new Dell laptop is not looking complete without sound.

Please CC me -- i am not on lk

cheers,
jamal
