[wplug] sound trouble w/ laptop

[Phil Walther Jr.]

Welcome to the wonderful world of amplified DC noise.  Most of the time,
you're outta luck with a laptop in this situation.

uhh, well .. the computer speakers work fine (as do headfones) .. however,
when i plug a 1/8" to rca plug adapter into the laptop's headfone jack (no
dedicated line out) and i run it to any other device (computer speakers,
stereo, vcr, etc.) i can hear all of the electronic noise from the
harddrive, the display, the cpu when it's crunching numbers, the dvd-rom,
etc.  kind of annoying.

i've seperated parts to the best of my ability and haven't been able to
track down the cause for the noise.  any ideas?  thanks
