I was adviced to add an "idepad" string to sound options in sound.conf file, that actually helped only for current session, then I tried to setup my soundcard through Yast manually, how i did it: opened Yast > Hardware > Sound Configuration, there I had two drivers(SBx00)Azalia(Intel HDA) and (RS780) Azalia controller, both being enabled and configured atomatically, I don't like it, so I disabled (RS780) Azalia controller and set my (SBx00)Azalia(Intel HDA) options: Fix DMA pointer(0=auto, 1=none, 2=POSBUF) position_fix was set to 0 Value Use single command to communicate with codecs(for debug only)was set to 0 Value Use the given board model was set to ideapad. That worked quite well, and my video, flash, audio worked nicely with either headphones or speakers. But sometimes when I rebooted and logged in into my openbox manager I had problems with audio, sometimes I needed to start kmix only or simple mixer and to make all sound work, but sometimes I didn't have sound in flash and video, sometimes headphones didn't work, so then I opened Yast and went trough the above setup again to make everything work, cause all my configured options were absent in my Yast Sound config, so I had to set them back. This happens quite often when I have to choose different desktop managers just after reboot, I also added one file to my home folder a file .asoundrc (it was adviced on one of the forums). Cat of .asoundrc is: pcm.!default { type hw card 1 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 } I dont know if it actually helped cause only manual setup through Yast makes sound to work properly. I always check my volume in any mixer I have, so don't advice it. What I think actually is that os 11.3 simply doesn't have any proper hardware support for lenovo thinkpad EDGE, strangely though Lenovo is an official parter of SUSE. I'm waiting for nice good kernel update, so I could finally enjoy my suse experience. thank you. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.reboot 2.log in Openbox Actual Results: Log out current session or reboot and log in into another available session, not previous one. Expected Results: soundcard setup failure, missing sound, headphones jack do not work properly. -- 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.
