Found it: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=97993&highlight=hdmi+audio There's also an Ubuntu bug open for this as well on Launchpad. I'll see what else I can find out, but at the moment it looks like we're stuck. Sucks too, as Linux tends to make excellent HTPCs... Here's the Launchpad link, it's actually for a Realtek device but with nvidia video on the motherboard. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/148097 - Steven -----Original Message----- From: Tobin Davis [mailto:tdavis@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sun 3/2/2008 4:59 PM To: Tellman, Steven Cc: Lee Revell; Armando Di Cianno; alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: HDMI v. ICH8 on Dell XPS M1330 It is possible that HDMI audio is pulled from an unknown i2c bus on the video chip. 3dfx did that a long time ago with their 3500 card for their tv tuner portion. I think at this point, unless Steven knows more, this may be unsupported until nVidia adds support in their driver or opens up part of the spec.
