Ubuntu 9.10: No audio on IBM ThinkPad T40 (Karmic-Koala)

After Installing Karmic - Koala (Ubuntu 9.10) on an old IBM thinkpad T40, there was no audio.
Adding a module seem to solve the problem.

/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
Open a Terminal screen and type:
gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Add the flollowing line at the Bottom, save and Reboot.
options snd-hda-intel model=ibm-thinkpad









Enjoy your sound at next boot.
