So far the 20.04 uses 5.8.0-generic kernel, it is not easy to backport soundwire code to 5.8 kernel. And the 20.04 is going to replace 5.8 kernel with 5.11.0-generic kernel soon, when this happens, the LTS will support your machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member

Finally . . . The downloading and installing the 5.13.0rc was unremarkable. The only problem was sudo would not function. I su'd and it worked. uname -r = 5.13.0-051300rc6-generic sudo $dmesg > dmesg.txt generated a sudo error so I su'd to root and ran dmesg > dmesg-1.txt and voila the text

Hello again. Thank You for your continuing help. As I did before, I tried to load 5.11.0-20 but absolutely no luck. I found the packages at ubuntu.paks(?).org but they locked me up totally. My system froze halfway through the boot process. Tried it 3 times. Same result. I found some more at

@pbea, It is expected that the audio doesn't work well with 5.10.0-051000-generic kernel on your machine, what I mean is please try 5.11.0-20-generic kernel, if the audio still doesn't work with that kernel, please upload the dmesg.txt generated under that kernel. thx. -- You received this bug

Back again. Sorry for the delay but my system was completely screwed up from loading all the kernels. At the end Grub-Customizer and the Kubuntu Boot Menu showed two different listings. After much cleaning up, I did finally load 5.11.0-20 but nothing worked. I even lost my networking. Sometime

Thank You. My research suggests that the command journalctl -k is almost equivalent to the old smesg so I have attached a copy. I will still try to load your suggestion. ** Attachment added: "journalctl -k output"
