Sound?

Ruben told that it may crash the kernel. I have not yet tried anything with sound. But I know some spurious write errors to I2C address 0x13. That may

I found that these errors come from the ak4642en driver.

Ruben has reported (http://projects.kwaak.net/twiki/bin/view/Epc700/KernelPort26Compiling ) he has modified the /sound/oss/ak4642en.c to make it working (partially).

When looking into the code, I can see that the driver is unsuccessfully trying to access a i2c device at bus address 0x13. According to the data sheet the ak4642 address can be programmed between 0x12 and 0x13 by an external pin. Nevertheless, i2cdetect doesn't report a response and i2cget returns a read error (at least on my device - but I can't exclude a hardware defect).

How is this related to the jz_ac97 driver?

have something to do with the audio codec - but may also be something
completely different.

The sounds uses the ac97 bus; completely separate from the i2c
controller. Sound has been pretty buggy and I still see weird
unreliability for certain cases. Attached is a cleaned up driver for
2.6.24.
