Re: [CentOS] Where can I find more information on the recent update to the 4.18.0-373 kernel

2022-04-20 Thread Joshua Kramer
That's great Kay, thanks for the info!  Question, if you don't mind my
asking: how new is your hardware?  The reason I ask is that certain newer
Intel processors (11th generation mobile "Tiger Lake" i5 and i7) have a
thermal issue where it's throttled down to 400MHz in certain heavy loads.
There is a fix coming for this in 5.18 and I'm not sure if RedHat is going
to backport it to earlier kernels.  (There is a stopgap to this, if you
replace the thermald package with a thermald version 2.4.9 or later the
problem isn't as bad.)

Re: [CentOS] Where can I find more information on the recent update to the 4.18.0-373 kernel

2022-04-20 Thread Kay Schenk

Hi Joshua, and list...

I got the non-workng sound driver for Intel HDA fixed with my kernel 
4.18.0-373.


After removing the extra kernel flag i915_alpha from my command line

(see instructions when this module really was alpha --

https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3410491#understanding-kernel-command-line-parameters_configuring-kernel-command-line-parameters), 



I used the instructions given by

Syaifur Rizal 

in this post...

https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/audio-devices-not-listed/19344

I had a feeling I needed a modprobe.d entry but I didn't know what the 
syntax would be.


In any case, posting more info in case anyone needs it.

This version is too recent I think. I'm not sure why it's there?

I then manually downloaded this version, it looks like it's working better:
