2006-01-21 Thread kalin mintchev

  hi all...

  a week or so ago i sent this email to the list with my dmesg attached. i
haven't gotten any replies since then. i'm thinking of sending my
machine back to ibm to fix the sound card.

  i was thinking to ask first if anybody has anything to comment on the
information i provided here before i do that..

  any input will be appreciated...

  thanks you...


 thanks here:

 # pciconf -lv |grep multimedia
 # pciconf -lv | grep audio
 #

 and the dmesg is attached   thanks..

 Hi again,

 Please don't try to open your laptop, i have a T30 here out of
 warranty.
 Just call them back, they will not charge you probably.

thanks...  it is under warranty. but i really need it here to work.
 some
of it needs sound...
i wouldn't really go into the laptop myself - i've done that in the
 past
and althuoght it was partially successful i don't want to go through it
again. if it was a desktop maybe but not with this laptop...

the problem is that if i deal with them over the phone the second i
mention that i'm not using windows they turn red and say 'we are not
supporting your machine then. you have to reimage (?!?) it'. uhh..
reimage?!?... ok...

 For one more time:
 Are you sure dmesg does not show your sound card, even with a message
 (driver not attached) next to it??
 or pciconf -lv showing something similar to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:0:0:...
 ...   and then something like:
 class= multimedia
 subclass = audio

 if yes you have to send the notebook back to them.
 Your laptop is under warranty and they accepted it once already. They
 will
 do it again, since after their repair your sound card doesn't work.st

 Hi,

 What pciconf -lv says? Can you find your card there?
 not there. everything else seems to be fine but the sound card is not there.

Well if it is not there then you must call them back and report this, since 
also you cannot see the card in dmesg...

 BIOS updates are known to make things better, but there are few chances to
 cause such problems, in which case you can go back to a previous version.
 Before you think of that however, find and read what the new version they
 installed, is fixing. Be sure before start messing with the bios.

 right... but how to be sure that are the bios and they didn't screwed the
card itself when they where replacing the board where the ram slots are?!

..Of course there are chances that things can go wrong, as you are mentioning 
above.It looks h/w problem or compatibility issue maybe, so call them back and 
report your problem. 
However you took the machine back in 48 hours probably because:
they unscrew one screw and changed your memory (not replacing the board..) and 
memory slots are not close to the sound card (are exatly under your left 
hand.(one screw) as i can see, then they updated the BIOS, then run some tests 
which passed, finally dispatched your laptop.
Please don't try to open your laptop, i have a T30 here out of warranty. Just 
call them back, they will not charge you probably.

  hi all..

  i sent my t30 to ibm to replace a not working ram slot and i got it back
 in less then 48 hrs. pretty good. except the /dev/dsp is missing.

  i don't see any cards in the dmesg but i know that the audio card is
 SoundBlaster compatible. my system is 5.4 and according to the handbook
 devfs should figure it out - i haven't had to do this before...
 a have the audio enabled in the kernel... pcm...

 any ideas why is the dsp missing?  i think they did bios upgrade - is that
 what screwed it up?

 thanks...
