Hi Marius,

Thank you! It works on my Blade 100. Tested with mpg123!
The sound is not routed to the internal speaker if no headphones are 
pluged in (as is the case for Ultra 1 etc) but this is not a problem.

Attached please find the dmesg! Could somebody add the dmesg to my list of 
dmesgs on the wiki page?

Best regards,

Gheorghe Ardelean.
