Hello, I already wrote this mail to lkml, but no one replied so I try it here. I hope I don't bother anybody by doing so *sorry*
I own a laptop with a sis7018 sound-chipset and I am running FC4 updated to kernel Linux cehost 2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 (not compiled myself, 2.6.11 does not work either). I never had problems with my soundcard at all but some time ago it suddely stopped to work. I can't remember wether it was a kernel-update or a motherboard exchange made by service engineers. Whenever an application tries to access the sound-device I get messages like the following on syslog: codec_write 0: semaphore is not ready for register 0x2c the same again and again, but different registers: 0x2c, 0x2a 0x2c 0x2c 0x2c 0x2c 0x3a 0x2a When booting up I get a strange message from the pci subsystem: PCI: Failed to allocate mem resource #6:[EMAIL PROTECTED] for 0000:01:00.0 booting with pci=noacpi did not help or change the situation. However I guess 01:00 is my graphic-card. this is the output I get from lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 645xx (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SG86C202 00:02.0 ISA bridge: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS963 [MuTIOL Media IO] (rev 14) 00:02.1 SMBus: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS961/2 SMBus Controller 00:02.3 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] FireWire Controller 00:02.5 IDE interface: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 5513 [IDE] 00:02.6 Modem: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Modem Controller (rev a0) 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Sound Controller (rev a0) 00:03.0 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.1 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.2 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 1.0 Controller (rev 0f) 00:03.3 USB Controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] USB 2.0 Controller 00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Ethernet (rev 90) 00:0c.0 CardBus bridge: ENE Technology Inc CB1410 Cardbus Controller 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18M [GeForce4 488 Go] (rev a2) Thank you in advance, lg Clemens ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
