Hello,
root[/home/didier]# lspci -knn|grep -A2 Audio
00:1b.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset
Family High Definition Audio Controller [8086:1c20] (rev 04)
Subsystem: Lenovo 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition
Audio Controller [17aa:21cf]
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel
Weekly image ISO: debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso (dated 14 June IIRC).
I would expect that /lib/debian-installer-startup.d/S38espeakup detects
one sound card, so just starts espeakup.
Instead, it is stuck in the 30 seconds loop then give up.
I attach S38espeakup and the Slint script probe_sound_cars with the same
purpose but that does detect the card.
However I don't know if the difference comes from the script or on how
/sys is populated or from any other reason.
I will provide additional information upon request.
Best regards,
Didier
PS additionally the 'sleep' from BusyBox doesn't accept a 0.1 argument, but
that's minor.
