Technically, its an ESS Maestro3, so if you build your kernel without
pcm support, and load snd_maestro3 at boot time, you'll be fine.

DVD works fine in my Dell 8000, what BIOS revision do you have? If I
recall properly, I have version A10, and I am assuming that Dell has
fixed this issue, possibly without knowing it ;)
I am also now able to suspend my laptop after using the builtin mini-pci
nic (using the non-miibus code), and I do not have those nasty SCB
timeouts that so many have described. Hope this helps you some!
