Hello,

I've got an Inspiron 1501, and under 4.2/AMD64 when attempting to play
audio I get garbled/repeated/slow audio, using mpg321 and cat blah.au 
/dev/sound. With and without ACPI, with GENERIC  GENERIC.MP. The built
in volume-keys even work.

Chipset is ATI RS485M / SB600.


Deanna Phillips just fixed the audio issue on that chipset, but the 
patch is not yet in current. As soon as it is in the tree you could try 
to backport it to 4.2 or just switch to current. That would be the 
better option, as the SATA controller in IDE mode on your chipset does 
not use DMA transfers and will be really slow. In current is a fix for 
the ahci controller (which could have been already in 4.2, but a similar 
fix got ignored... no rant intended, just wondered why this was not 
looked into when I sent it half a year ago), which should improve disk 
access speed dramatically.


Kind regards
  Markus

Yep, I just committed the fix.  Thanks for testing it.  This
issue probably exists with other ATI and NVIDIA chipsets, but I
can't find many in the dmesg collection.  Everyone, please
submit your dmesg to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you'd like to see problems
like this fixed more quickly -- sometimes before you even notice
them.

Hello,

I've got an Inspiron 1501, and under 4.2/AMD64 when attempting to play
audio I get garbled/repeated/slow audio, using mpg321 and cat blah.au 
/dev/sound. With and without ACPI, with GENERIC  GENERIC.MP. The built
in volume-keys even work.

Chipset is ATI RS485M / SB600.

Incidently, I noticed a) the warning in about overheating in the acpi(4)
man page, and b)that the acpitz/acpicpu said not configured. Should I be
worried? (I guess it didn't melt down when compiling the kernel...)

I hope I didn't miss something obvious...

Thanks,

Stu
