I didn't see any ALSA messages in your boot log so it isn't initializing fully. A section of my bootlog is below. Have you tried it with the sound driver built in?

Thanks. My guess: two types of problems at this point: the changes to how the rootfs handles audio and issues with the audio driver as a module. I'll debug the audio driver module problems. For now, I recommend you try building the driver into the rootfs so that you can debug the rootfs issues.

Regarding the rename, I am sympathetic and the case you are making for it is sound (pardon the pun). I just don't have the time. Keep in mind that it is one platform for you (imx-3stack-sgtl5000) but for me it is seven (sgtl5000, ak4647, ak5702, etc). Also if I rename all those file, it makes it harder to diff between 2.6.28 and 2.6.31. -- no sound devices on babbage board with linux-image-2.6.31-100-imx51 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Are you plugged into the right jack? If you are used to the Babbage1 board, it's easy to plug the headphone into the wrong jack. The headset and headphone jacks swapped somewhere between BBG1 and BBG2.5. They weren't even labeled on BBG1, but they're labeled on BBG2.5 (in tiny, tiny print). The jack closer to the corner of the board (marked HDPHONE) is for stereo headphones. The jack next to it is for a headset with one channel of audio and a mic (HDSET). Regarding DVI monitors, I strongly that recommend everybody remove those two resistors (#11) even if sound seems to be working. The real problem is that some I2C reads/writes will fail, so you could get sound that is *mostly* working. -- no sound devices on babbage board with linux-image-2.6.31-100-imx51 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm attaching two patches to give you what we have of the audio port. These patches apply cleanly to your fsl-imx51 branch. Playback and record work. There is an issue with your regulator stuff that breaks things somewhat. You will see a boot error that occurs when imx-3stack-sgtl5000.c calls regulator_get. That's something that needs to get fixed in your regulator stuff. Audio functionality will be broken until this is fixed as the audio does not completely initialize. There is another issue with a loud pop happening when boot up occurs. This is because the 'Line In Jack' widget is on all the time. I'm working on fixing this. As is, audio works, but will never completely power down, so it becomes an issue with power consumption also. -- no sound devices on babbage board with linux-image-2.6.31-100-imx51 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This patch puts #if 0 around the regulator initialization part if imx-3stack-sgtl5000's probe so that the audio driver can finish initializing.

[Bug 420447] Re: no sound devices on babbage board with linux-image-2.6.31-100-imx51
Some boards have I2C errors when a DVI monitor is plugged in. This can prevent register access to the sgtl5000 audio codec when the audio driver is initializing. The symptom is that you will see in the boot messages some I2C errors and a message that it has not successfully id'd the sgtl5000. The workaround is to take two resistors off the board (this is OK for babbage 2.0 and 2.5): R284 and R287. They are located on the top side of the board about 1cm from the DVI connector on either side of U33. This will cut the I2C connection to the DVI connection so that it will not be able to read the EDID. So specifying the video mode in the kernel command line is necessary if you are not already doing so, i.e. video=mxcfb:1024x768...@60. -- no sound devices on babbage board with linux-image-2.6.31-100-imx51 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/420447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

So audio is there in the kernel and it does not get detected properly. Maybe my methods of fixing it are wrong.

[Bug 407119] Re: audio stuttering during desktop-login.org but only just after login
It appears that it is the vorbis decode that gets behind. If I change the login sound to be a 7 second sine uncompressed wav file in the Sound Preferences, the sine wave plays flawlessly. So I think this is a priority problem where the vorbis decoder gets behind because too much stuff is happening at login. Is there some way of adjusting priority so that decode gets higher cpu priority at this time? Are there other experiments I could be doing that would help pin this down or optimise the configuration? How does priority for things like audio decoders get set?

[Bug 407119] [NEW] audio stuttering during desktop-login.org but only just after login
Public bug reported: Platform: Babbage 2.0 Release: Jaunty with all the current upgrades. I uninstalled pulseaudio to save cpu. I also patched the audio driver to increase the minimal audio period size to 2K. Patch is attached. Symptom: 1. Log onto Ubuntu. The desktop-login.org sound will play with huge amounts of stuttering. 2. There is no stuttering if you play same file later. Open the Sound Preferences app, click on the Sounds tab, click on the arrow next to 'Login'. The desktop-login.org will play _without_ stuttering. What I figured out so far: At first I thought this was due to SSI underruns. So I fixed the underruns, but the stuttering remained. The app that is playing the audio was requesting a 64 byte audio buffer period. This is the minimum audio buffer period that the audio driver allows. That was causing SSI underruns. So I fixed that in the audio driver, I made the minimum audio period 2K bytes. The patch is attached (1 line changed in patch). But the error remains. It only happens during the initial login. I think this is new behavior for Jaunty but can't prove that at this time. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- audio stuttering during desktop-login.org but only just after login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/407119 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yeah, that's fine, I agree it is good to be real exact about what changed and what didn't, so I'm totally fine with any questions you have on my setup. Are you seeing the failure of the applets after login? I started down the path of DebuggingProgramCrash, not sure which program to pursue as the crashing one. Also difficult since by the time the system is up it has already crashed. I guess if I add a serial console to the exec line I can set up gdb to monitor something before I log into gnome. Hopefully that will be early enough. Any suggestions on which to tell gdb to monitor? My networking is totally working. I must have a MAC address since DHCP is giving me an IP address. I ran ifconfig ifcfg-bad on a failing system and ifconfig ifcfg-good after going back to the happy redboot. No real diff between the two files (except # of bytes/packages tx/rx).
