Even with the latest Uniaud and Paul's HDA-aware uniaud32.sys, the eCS installer will not detect the audio. If you choose to install Uniaud manually (during eCS install), the shipped version cannot access the HDA audio in the T60/61. Install Uniaud 1.1.4 RC6 + one of Paul's builds (1.9.2 or one of the newer test versions) on top of the uniaud32.sys in the RC6 package. > Genmac: I need to get the wLan monitor, it won't connect but I saw > no where to enter WPA info. > > The WPA supplicant is part of the XWLAN package, not GenMAC. Install XWLAN, and you will be able to create a wireless profile including the WPA info.
