I looked through the changelogs on http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/l/linux/linux_3.17-1~exp1_changelog and http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.17 and could not find any news about audio drivers - plus I read the warning about data loss and experimental state of 3.17, and I'm feeling unsure if it's safe for me to use it, I am not that good at Linux yet... if you say it's relatively safe could you give me a few hints how to do the kernel update safely or point me to the direction where I can read about how to do it, please? > > > Only difference, I can't use media buttons to control volume when > > pulseaudio is turned off (guess that's normal) > > Thats not normal.

That's strange then... something seems really wrong with this Macbook ***** :P I recently noticed that I have a slight sound problem with my speakers, too - in Mac OS + Windows I get decent sound from right and left built-in speaker; in Debian Jessie I only have the right speaker working correctly, but the left one is a lot quieter... as if it's also not working 100% with the driver... > > [0] https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug I'm unable to open that site - it seems to be down? Even with simple http:// it just gives me a 404 Error... is it reachable for you? Teutone
