   I tried a test of LM22 on the old E8400 CPU with HD6450 video card and 16GB   
   RAM,   
   and this is what you see when testing the analog sound. I was using   
   simplescreenrecorder to record the screen, which is why the CPU usage   
   is so high. The sound is Intel HDAudio and some small CODEC for the analog.

   The sound works and comes out of the speakers.   
      
   I find LM 21.3 is better for old computers,   
   and LM 22 just isn't quite the same for the job.   
      
   The LM21.3 uses the 5.15 kernel, while LM22 uses 6.x.y kernels.
