https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331960#c2 Tom Cada changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |thomas.cada@gmail.com --- Comment #2 from Tom Cada 2007-10-08 20:45:27 MST --- I believe the problem is related to HP equipment. I am installing on a HP Pavilion DV9443CA notebook which is close in specifications to the Compaq V6133CL. In my install, and subsequent boot-ups, I notice that HP drivers are used for the SATA and PATA drives and a version of HP's BCM43XX Broadcom driver is loaded. I have been unable to modify or remove the sound card reference using YAST. I even went so far as to reinstall 10.3 but it single-mindedly uses the V6133CL as a sound card reference with munged up drivers (I guess). Kubuntu installs the sound card properly and when queried states that it is a Nvidia MCP51 High Definition Sound using a Conexant CX20549 (Venice) chip set. HP had some computers certified for use with Linux distos and I am guessing that this problem is part of the work that they have done, that has not been updated for the newer releases. I'll try the patch. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The fedoraforum solution didn't work for me either. It is important to notice know though that technically speaking my sound does work. It only hangs in an 1 second endless loop. Meaning that when the system makes a sound (or when playing an ogg) it repeats the 1st second of that sound over and over again. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331960#c26 --- Comment #26 from Thomas Renninger 2007-10-12 05:21:51 MST --- Let's clear some things up first to avoid confusion: - x86_64 kernel boots with normal boot parameters (without acpi=off) sound card should work then? - We have a bug in i386 code that even prevents the machine from booting. The machine always hangs around the same place, but not exactly the same place. So this could point to an idle/C-state/nohz issue, but this is just a guess. I cannot see whether dmesg from comment #24/#25 is i386 or x86_64, those were both i386 which did not boot without the paramters or with the default kernel? In general we try to track down an i386 kernel bug here that prevents the machine from booting. If you see other issues on the x86_64 kernel or anything else, pls open a separate bug or things will get confusing. If the i386 kernel (in acpi mode) did not boot without these parameters: CPUFREQ=off nohz processor.max_cstate=1 and does now boot with them, could you try to pass each of them, to see what of these three causes the machine to hang. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It works with x86_64 kernel. The CPU is a: Mobile AMD Sempron(tm) Processor 3500+ The parameters: CPUFREQ=off nohz processor.max_cstate=1 help to also get it booting with i386 kernel. Do you already know about such an issue? Aniruddha, if Joachim does not know about this, could you try to boot with each single boot parameter: CPUFREQ=off nohz processor.max_cstate=1 So that we know which one causes the grief. AFAIK Semprons do not have multiple C-states, so processor.max_cstate=1 should be unrelated, but I am not sure about this (oh it's a mobile processor, maybe it even has several C-states...). Changing topic -> the not working sound card probably came because of noapic which gets used with acpi=off workaround, this one should work as soon as we get the machine booted without acpi=off. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
