A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2263> ====================================================================== Reported By: NathanF Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - driver Issue ID: 2263 Category: PCI - via82xx Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new Distribution: Grafpup Linux Kernel Version: 2.6.17.3 ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 07-07-2006 08:06 CEST Last Modified: 07-07-2006 16:31 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: All sound plays in an endless loop Description: dmesg reports 'snd_via82xx_modem: Unknown symbol snd_verbose_printk' Playing a sound file results in the first second repeating in an endless loop until the process is killed. Some applications will not play at all, flash animations in a browser play silently. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vsu - 07-07-06 10:58 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This looks like an IRQ problem. Did sound work with older kernels (e.g., 2.6.16)? Please attach dmesg output - it may contain useful information to diagnose the problem. Also you may try to revert (patch -p1 -R <file.patch) these patches from your 2.6.17.3 kernel: http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=a7b862f663d81858531dfccc0537bc9d8a2a4121 http://kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=75cf7456dd87335f574dcd53c4ae616a2ad71a11 These patches were supposed to stop VIA IRQ setup code from running on non-motherboard devices, but they seem to break IRQ routing on many systems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NathanF - 07-07-06 16:31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks you for the speedy reply, that boosts my confidence. I've attached the full txt of dmesg. To answer your other question, yes this worked under 2.6.16, also under 2.4.29 if that is relevent. I'm wondering if maybe I tried to compile in too much support trying to get a generic kernel, since you mention an IRQ problem. I will try reverting the patches you suggest.
