Using an Asus N10 netbook, I'm trying to use Nvidia GS 9300 HDMI connection
to send video and sound signls to a TV. I get image but no sound. I tried to
alsa 1.0.21 with a patch i foud in a web but neither works. Maybe could be
convenient to patch debian packages to make them support HDMI audio output
in
this and other graphic cards.
