Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.12.1 Distribution: Debian Sarge Problem Description: I have recently upgraded from kernel 2.6.12.1 to 2.6.14.3 in Debian Sarge (make oldconfig). I had a SB Live card working with Alsa (Chip: SigmaTel STAC9758,59) After upgrading sound stop working. I have solved the problem following the instructions in http://alsa.opensrc.org/emu10k1 : /***********/ In alsa-driver/alsa-kernel/pci/ac97/ac97_codec.c is the line { 0x83847658, 0xffffffff, "STAC9758/59", patch_sigmatel_stac9758, NULL }, change it to { 0x83847658, 0xffffffff, "STAC9758/59", NULL, NULL }, /***********/
Please email us a patch, as per http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/tpp.txt, thanks.
The patch is wrong. It will break many other boards. Please try the latest kernel at first. It should have been fixed.
I'm assuming this issue is already fixed. Please reopen this bug if it's still resent in kernel 2.6.16.5.
