Software may access the Intel High Definition Audio controller registers (including the memory mapped registers) by byte, word, dword quantities and on natural boundaries; dword accesses must be on dword boundaries, word accesses on word boundaries, etc. This chapter describes BIOS requirements for Intel High Definition Audio controller support. 7.1 Intel® High Definition Audio/AC’ 97 Signal Mode Selection The Intel High Definition Audio controller and the AC’97 controllers (audio and modem) share the same physical signal pins to communicate with codecs as Figure 7-1 below shows. The High Definition Audio/AC97# Signal Mode (AZ/AC97#) bit at D27:F0:Reg40h[0] determines which one of the two controllers is connected to the codec. Figure 7-1. Intel® ICH6 Intel® High Definition Audio/AC’97 Share Signals to Codecs An outstanding audio experience back to top Intel HD Audio delivers significant improvements over previous generation integrated audio and sound cards. Intel HD Audio hardware is capable of delivering the support and sound quality for up to eight channels at 192 kHz/32-bit quality, while the AC‘97 specification can only support six channels at 48 kHz/20-bit. In addition, Intel HD Audio is architected to prevent the occasional glitches or pops that other audio solutions can have by providing dedicated system bandwidth for critical audio functions. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have submitted service request for you to fix this, you could read those as well. steps to Reproduce: 1. Start opensuse zen 2. start opensuse pae 3. I am not a unix expert, and I have a reasonable expectation that the sound should always work without me doing anything. Good Luck.

Most of these new Unix flavors were developed from the System V base under a license from AT&T; however, others were based on BSD instead. One of the leading developers of BSD, Bill Joy, went on to co-found Sun Microsystems in 1982 and created SunOS for their workstation computers. In 1980, Microsoft announced its first Unix for 16-bit microcomputers called Xenix, which the Santa Cruz Operation (SCO) ported to the Intel 8086 processor in 1983, and eventually branched Xenix into SCO UNIX in 1989. In 2003, the SCO Group started legal action against various users and vendors of Linux. SCO had alleged that Linux contained copyrighted Unix code now owned by The SCO Group. Other allegations included trade-secret violations by IBM, or contract violations by former Santa Cruz customers who had since converted to Linux. However, Novell disputed the SCO Group's claim to hold copyright on the UNIX source base. According to Novell, SCO (and hence the SCO Group) are effectively franchise operators for Novell, which also retained the core copyrights, veto rights over future licensing activities of SCO, and 95% of the licensing revenue. The SCO Group disagreed with this, and the dispute resulted in the SCO v. Novell lawsuit. On August 10, 2007, a major portion of the case (the fact that Novell had the copyright to UNIX, and that the SCO Group had improperly kept money that was due to Novell) was decided in Novell's favor. The court also ruled that "SCO is obligated to recognize Novell's waiver of SCO's claims against IBM and Sequent". After the ruling, Novell announced they have no interest in suing people over Unix and stated, "We don't believe there is Unix in Linux".[13][14][15] SCO successfully got the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn this decision on August 24, 2009 which sent the lawsuit back to the courts.[16][17][18] In 2005, Sun Microsystems released the bulk of its Solaris system code (based on UNIX System V Release 4) into an open source project called OpenSolaris. New Sun OS technologies such as the ZFS file system are now first released as open source code via the OpenSolaris project; as of 2006 OpenSolaris has spawned several non-Sun distributions such as SchilliX, Belenix, Nexenta, Jaris OS and MarTux. You not trying at all; the bug is explained in detail in more than 20 other bug reports listed under intel sound. Only Novell and OpenSuse bold enough not to fix no Sound on their OP SYS, really, no sound at all and they had the ba.... to release it at all really. This problem is that Xen and Pae do not work with the intel on chip sound and the only error message is seen from KDE 4 on startup. I can not force to fix your OP SYS, but I can warn user that they may get NO SOUND AT ALL WITH YOUR OP SYS; because to did not test it well enough before release. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

prevalent and pervasive; and many other people have the same problem so it begs the question why Novell has not solve this problem long time ago.

Many other people have *different* problems from yours. You see only the work "HD-audio". This means just one thing: it's a modern PC. The rest hardware implementation differs from machine to machine. You wouldn't say that a broadcom Wifi Oops problem would be identical with an Intel iwlagn driver QoS issue? Both are about "Wifi", but completely different issues. Ditto for "HD-audio". Thus each problem has to be investigated differently.

From the same reason, developers can't test / confirm the possible solution because of lack of the exact hardware. This is why the prompt tests by bug reporters are vital.

So, take a look at comment 18. There are a few test procedure. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sometimes the sound does not work at all; that is the problem the Unix is useless with out reliable sound. ================================================== So... The problem you face looks like a typical one regarding the KDE sound subsystem. It's likely a conflict with pulseaudio. As a workaround, try the following: - Remove libflashsupport package - Remove pulseaudio package If you get any dependency problem, at least, try to uninstall pulseaudio.rpm and pulseaudio-module-x11.rpm but keep libpulse*.rpm - Make sure you have phonon-backend-xine package installed - Remove phonon-backend-gstreamer-0_10 package Then re-login. =================================================== if this is so how do i know for sure. how do i do what you suggest and how do i undo what you suggest if necessary. =================================================== Remove libflashsupport package - Remove pulseaudio package If you get any dependency problem, at least, try to uninstall pulseaudio.rpm and pulseaudio-module-x11.rpm but keep libpulse*.rpm - Make sure you have phonon-backend-xine package installed - Remove phonon-backend-gstreamer-0_10 package I don't know how to do any of this sorry; but I can follow direction if they are clear. ==================================================== i only want to do what is necessary for my system. ==================================================== "This is why the prompt tests by bug reporters are vital."
