[Bug 285914] New: Sound hangs on CPU frequency change
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=285914 Summary: Sound hangs on CPU frequency change Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai(a)novell.com ReportedBy: ray(a)openland.cz QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- First of all I must say, that I am using openSUSE 10.2, but I have selected openSUSE 10.3 product, because I am using latest kernel from HEAD repository. Hardware Environment: Asus A6Km Software Environment: e.g. Amarok audio player Problem Description: I have Asus A6Km with AMD Turion 3200+. It has Realtek ALC650 integrated sound card and is working fine. Recently, I bought Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 24-bit External for this laptop, because I have already one connected to my desktop computer (openSUSE 10.2 x86) and works fine too. However, when I connect Sound Blaster to my laptop, sound hangs randomly. I spent lot of time finding the reason, because there was nothing in logs, dmesg etc. Finally I found, that it is caused by CPU frequency scaling. When CPU speed is changed, than sound hangs - to reboot help only disconnection of Sound Blaster. When I fix CPU frequency, than Sound Blaster works like the other one in my desktop computer - fine. I found only two refs describing similar/same problem: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-laptops/63126-sound-problems-cpu-ste… http://alsa.opensrc.org/Tascam_US-224 Steps to reproduce: 1) Connect Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 24-bit External 2) start some audio output with your favorite player 3) wait on frequency change 4) Sound hangs 5) For successful reboot, it is necessary to disconnect Sound Blaster Hope, you can help me. If you will need any other info, just ask me. I also submit bug to Alsa bugzilla (ID: 0003097) month ago and kernel bugzilla (ID: 8648), but there were no response. I am not sure whether this is sound subsystem related issue or USB subsystem issue (my laptop has SIS chipset, which is not so often used like others). May be I am absolutely wrong putting this bug report to this bugzilla, so if anyone from Novell staff decide, that this report is not related to this bugzilla, but only to kernel/alsa bugzilla, feel free to close it. -- 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.

[Bug 470461] New: The installation partitioner suggests removal of the mac os partition eventhough there is plenty of other space

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=470461 Summary: The installation partitioner suggests removal of the mac os partition eventhough there is plenty of other space Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: unspecified Platform: Macintosh OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: d.pashov(a)gmail.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008121300 SUSE/3.0.5-2.5 Firefox/3.0.5 The default original partitioning on an intel mac is: Disk /dev/sda: 320GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 20.5kB 210MB 210MB fat32 EFI System Partition boot 2 210MB 53.8GB 53.6GB hfs+ Apple_HFS_Untitled_1 (there is a lot of free space after 2 as you can see) there is usually one or more other partitions after those depending on what one did. The default solution in the partitioning section is to remove all partitions and create the necessary. This is highly undesirable and for many unacceptable solution. A new, relatively clueless user is not very likely to install openSUSE when (s)he finds that it wants to erase the whole computer. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start openSUSE 11.1 or 11.2 installation on an intel mac. 2.Look at the default partitioning suggested by the installer 3. Actual Results: The installer wants to remove all partitions and create the necessary. Expected Results: It should leave the firs two partitions: the EFI and the mac os. The others could be left on the installer's mercy but the first two are essential. They should not be touched. May be the second (the mac os) could be auto mounted but that's not really necessary. -- 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.
