Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686 Version: 2.6.17-9~bpo.1 Severity: important
I bought a Asrock 775i65G R2.0 board and it has a CMI9761A audio chip (I checked in Windows). "lspci -vvv" excerpt: 0000:00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation: Unknown device 9761 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 0 Interrupt: pin B routed to IRQ 193 Region 0: I/O ports at d800 [size=256] Region 1: I/O ports at dc00 [size=64] Region 2: Memory at ff27f800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512] Region 3: Memory at ff27f400 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=375mA PME(D0+,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold+) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- With this kernel, neither master nor pcm volumes are working (either through an OSS mixer (aumix) or alsamixer). Actually PCM volume is blocked at maximum. Master seems to have absolutely no effect (volume, muting and unmuting). However muting pcm works as expected, but is pretty useless in this situation. I also tested a live KUbuntu 6.06 cd, it has a (modified) 2.6.15 kernel, and with it the situation is better: pcm volume is working as expected (but master is still inoperant). So the hardware has a working mixer (at least partially), and the current sound driver seems broken (snd_intel8x0? snd_ac97_codec? snd_ac97_bus?) because it has worked somewhere in the past. In case it's relevant, a Intel Core2Duo E6400 is plugged in the board, so the kernel works in SMP (and effectively shows 2 CPUs). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.17-2-686 depends on: ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-2bpo1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii yaird [linux-initramfs-t 0.0.12-8bpo1+fc Yet Another mkInitRD -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.17-2-686: true shared/kernel-image/really-run-bootloader: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.17-2-686: false linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/initrd-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/abort-install-2.6.17-2-686: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.17-2-686: true linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.17-2-686: false linux-image-2.6.17-2-686/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.17-2-686: -- Hope this helps, Fabien. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
