Re: [Alsa-user] Acer 4820TG hda-intel wrong BIOS-autoprobing

2011-08-19 Thread Tommaso Falchi Delitala
I noticed that error messages

hda-intel: spurious response 
hda-intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode:
...
hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode

are present in dmesg only when Intel integrated graphic card is used. The
system has two GPUs (Intel + ATI dedicated).
If ATI card is selected at boot (using vga_switcheroo) no such messages are
displayed.

Is there any logical explanation to this behavior?
Thanks and regards,

Tommaso

 Hi everybody,

 I think there is something wrong with the intel-hda model autoprobing
 on my Acer TimelineX 4820TG.

 The chip is recognized as:
 hda_codec: ALC271X: BIOS auto-probing,
 but Pcwizard under Windows 7 reports it as Realtek ALC-269. Other info
 I found on the Internet seem to confirm 269 is the right codec.

 Can anybody confirm the correct model onboard the Acer 4820TG?

 Dmesg is populated with:
 hda-intel: spurious response 0x0:0x0, last cmd=0x270d80
 [...]
 hda-intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to polling mode: last
 cmd=0x00270e02
 [...]
 hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, switching to single_cmd mode:
 last cmd=0x00170503
 azx_single_send_cmd: 177 callbacks suppressed

 I guess these erros result from wrong model autoprobing.
 Audio works anyway, but occasionally lags and shows major problems
 after enabling powersave features.

 I tried to force audio model with:
 options snd-hda-intel model=laptop-amic probe_mask=1, or
 options snd-hda-intel model=acer
 but it doesn't work.

 Is there a real problem in the codec model auto-probing?
 Should I file a kernel bug or am I missing something in the configuration?.

 Thank you for your help,
 Best Regards,

 Tommaso
