 Hello gevis,
 can you try some tests on the new machine running ubuntu 10.04.

 We need some more information from you before we can start

working on this bug.

 If you are using Jaunty or later this information can be gathered

for you automatically using the command

apport-collect -p alsa-base BUGNUMBER

where BUGNUMBER is the number of the bug you've reported.
 (BUGNUMBER is 414000)


I am sorry to say that I was too bold stating that the reported
bug also pertains Ubuntu 10.04 release.

Indeed, after installing Ubuntu 10.04 on the new computer with
Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT-UD5P motherboard for the first time
I had some problems with the sound that let me think that
I have the same problem as on my old computer with GA-MA69GM-S2H
motherboard and Ubuntu 8.10, but at the time I had other priorities
and had not checked everything in details.

Since than I reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 on that (new) computer (this time
with speakers turned on) and stopped using it because of the unusually
hot weather this summer (just contunuing to use only the old computer
with Ubuntu 8.10 to reduce heat production :)).

So, replying positively to Farbio's question if the bug I have reported
for Ubuntu 8.10 also pertains Ubuntu 10.04 I did it just from memory
and without any additional checks which I would definitely do if it would
not so terribly hot.

After obtaining your requests for making tests on Ubuntu 10.04
I finally checked the sound problem on my new computer with
Ubuntu 10.04 and found out that at least now, after the second
installation of Ubuntu 10.04, the sound driver works. At least just
after booting. :)

But at the present time I cannot say if the problem of a sudden
dropping of the sound (wich I still have on my old computer with
Ubuntu 8.10) also pertains to Ubuntu 10.04 because have not
used the new computer with Ubuntu 10.04 extensively.

If this problem appears I will report it separately.

Thank you all for replying to my bug report, and excuse me for
giving a bit incorrect information about the Ubuntu 10.04 release.

With best wishes,

Gevis.

P.S. As to my Ubuntu 8.10 bug report,
1) this release is already not supported,
2) the problem with the bug had only I, and
3) I already fixed it somehow.
So, you can forget about it and do something more usefull. :)

 Hello gevis

 Are you still experiencing this issue with the latest updated Lucid's
 packages?



Hi Fabio,

Thank you for finally noticing my bug report. :)

I still have not upgraded from Ubuntu 8.10 because of the problem with 9.04
release (it does not
work properly with my ATI Radeon X1250 video card) and I still have not
tried Ubuntu 10.04 on this
computer because of the fear to loose some data while installing the new
release over the old one.

But I have recently assembled another computer, on the base of Gigabyte
GA-MA790FXT-UD5P
motherboard, and had the same problem after installing Ubuntu 10.4 on it.

So, this bug seems to be version-independent, so to say. :)

My congratulations to its developpers. :)

As to the old computer with Ubuntu 8.10, the cure described in my bug report
have worked.
So, now I have sound on it. This sound sometimes drops, but /sbin/alsa
force-reload command
helps to reincarnate it. :)

As to the new computer with Ubuntu 10.04, it still has no sound as far as I
have not so far found
time to fix the problem.

P.S. Speaking on Ubuntu 9.04, I should say that it not only did not work on
my old computer because
of the video card problem but it also refused to install on the new
one and as a result won the
nomination the worst Linux distribution release I've ever seen.
:)

With best wishes and regards,

Gevis.



 Autodetect does not use the right sound module

 Status in “alsa-driver” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

 Bug description:
 I have Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H motherboard with AMD SB600 sound bridge
 chipset. (I have bought it just
 a year ago and it was brand-new at the time.)

 After installing Ubuntu 8.10 (kernel 2.6.27-7 generic, Gnome 2.24.1) from
 live CD for the first time
 I had no sound at all. After reinstalling it for a few times I have finally
 managed to get sound, but
 in few days it suddenly (even without reloading computer!) disappeared
 again.

 Trying to identify the problem as discribed in
 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting,
 I have found out that Ubuntu 8.10 stubbonly thinks that it should use
 snd-hda-intel kernel modul for ATI
 Radeon X1200 Series Audio Controller!

 This is an extract from the output from lspci -v | less command:

 01:05.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon X1200 Series Audio
 Controller
Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device 7919
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 32, IRQ 19
Memory at fdffc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: access denied
Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel

 The output from  aplay -l command was:

  Litst of PLAYBACK  Hardware Devices 
 Card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], Device 0: ALC883 Analog [ALC883 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
 Card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], Device 1: ALC883 Digital [ALC883 Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
 Card 1: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], Device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

 At the moment I am going to put the snd-atiixp line into /etc/modules file
 but I do not know the result of this operation yet. :)

 P.S. With Ubuntu 9.04 everything was even worse because it could not
 control my integrated in the AMD 690G north bridge chipset ATI Radeon X1250
 video card in the first place: the terminal blinked at the random intervals
 of time. :(
