hi all !
My uptime in Linux doesn't really go over 2 days... why ?
Because there is some very deep driver issue with my audio hardware, VIA 8237 audio. That is when working, my sound system suddenly fails, and starts to produce noise. - the problem is so deep that even "init 6" - full restart doesn't helps ! !
I still hear that noise even in GRUB Bootloader, where should be no sound at all ! ! !
That is very old bug, affecting SUSE Linux 10.0 and maybe earlier... link: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=263022
Platform: openSUSE 10.2, 32-bit, AMD Sempron, VIA KM400 chipset, VIA 8237 audio, 1GB of RAM.
Things that help: -Reboot into Windows, (windows drivers seem to restart my audio hardware) -System shutdown via init 0, and then cold-start
any ideas?

I would suggest downloading the latest beta drivers from the alsa web site. Compiling and installing them to see if that corrects your issue. Otherwise to eliminate further frustration on one of my sound issues I purchased for $16 a sound blaster live card and eliminated the sound card hardware giving me problems. Haven't had an issues since and the $$$ were far less than further frustration and time sorting it out. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
