Re: no sound on powerbook G4 with wheezy
Looks like this is a never-ending story... Originally there was only snd-powermac and it supported machines up to snapper: http://wiki.debian.org/PowerpcSoundcards Then came snd-aoa which supported machines from (and including) snapper upwards. And at some point snd-powermac decided to set a limit at the existence of layout-id property in device-tree. The last D-I has tried to set the limit between these two by blacklisting snd-aoa when snd-powermac is loaded. But it didn't check the layout-id. It's worth to mention that snd-powermac leaves the h/w intact when it gives the warning about layout-id in dmesg. But in at least one case, PowerMac G4 Digital Audio (PowerMac3,4), snd-aoa does something that prevents snd-powermac from working. This was the motivation for this last change in D-I. Now this patch should make it right: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=650588 Let's hope that we'll get a happy end after all.

I am running self compiled vanilla kernels. There is only snd_aoa_codec_onyx enabled which runs on the latest 5,8. But anyway, you're right. There must be found a solution for D-I to decide which snd modules should be loaded. The snd_powerpc should be for AWACS, DACA, Burgundy, Tumbler, Keywest only.

Re: no sound on powerbook G4 with wheezy
Yes, I did it in the first place without success. So it seems there are two bugs in D-I. First snd-powermac should not be included in /etc/modules, second udev should load proper modules as in the case of Powerbook5,8. Maybe different logic boards are to blame? 2011/12/26 Elimar Riesebieter : > * Piotr Kopszak [111226 09:19 +0100]: > >> It seems I have all the modules I need in place: > [...] > I included the following into /etc/modules and it's OK now. >> >> snd_aoa_i2sbus >> snd_aoa_fabric_layout >> snd_aoa_codec_tas > > Well, that shold be done by udev.

Re: no sound on powerbook G4 with wheezy
It seems I have all the modules I need in place: ~$ find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ -name '*aoa*' /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/core/snd-aoa.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/soundbus/snd-aoa-soundbus.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/soundbus/i2sbus/snd-aoa-i2sbus.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/codecs/snd-aoa-codec-toonie.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/codecs/snd-aoa-codec-tas.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/codecs/snd-aoa-codec-onyx.ko /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/aoa/fabrics/snd-aoa-fabric-layout.ko but there must be some problems with the way snd-aoa loads its submodules as I was finally able to get sound working using the solution that was only a couple of posts down the list (silly me!). I included the following into /etc/modules and it's OK now. snd_aoa_i2sbus snd_aoa_fabric_layout snd_aoa_codec_tas Many thanks for your help Piotr 2011/12/26 Elimar Riesebieter : > * Piotr Kopszak [111225 23:41 +0100]: > >> Many thanks for your suggestions, but still no success >> >> # modprobe -rv snd_powermac >> rmmod /lib/modules/3.1.0-1-powerpc/kernel/sound/ppc/snd-powermac.ko >> # echo "blacklist snd_powermac" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa_local.conf >> # modprobe snd_aoa >> # lsmod | grep sound >> soundcore 7962 1 snd > > What tells: > > $ find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ -name '*aoa*' > > Elimar > > -- > "Talking much about oneself can also > be a means to conceal oneself." > -Friedrich Nietzsche > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
