GPIO bit 0x08 means 3 pins. That's how the number 3 was deduced in the original code. > Here are some information about my sound-card. hda_analyzer shows: > > Codec: 0x111d76b2 > Address: 0 > Function Id: 0x101 > Vendor Id: 0x111d76b2 > Subsystem Id: 0x103c30fd > Revision Id: 0x100302 > No Modem Function Group found > Default PCM: > rates [0x7e0]: 44100 48000 88200 96000 176400 192000 > bits [0xe]: 16 20 24 > formats [0x1]: PCM > Default Amp-In caps: ofs=0x00, nsteps=0x00, stepsize=0x00, mute=1 > Default Amp-Out caps: ofs=0x7f, nsteps=0x7f, stepsize=0x02, mute=1 > GPIO: io=8, o=0, i=0, unsolicited=1, wake=1 > IO[0]: enable=1, dir=1, wake=0, sticky=0, data=1, unsol=0 > IO[1]: enable=0, dir=0, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > IO[2]: enable=0, dir=0, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > IO[3]: enable=1, dir=1, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > IO[4]: enable=0, dir=0, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > IO[5]: enable=1, dir=1, wake=0, sticky=0, data=1, unsol=0 > IO[6]: enable=0, dir=0, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > IO[7]: enable=0, dir=0, wake=0, sticky=0, data=0, unsol=0 > > > What should I do for for making a reliable patch. Any ideas ? Based on the information from HP, I assumed that the large package always contains 8 GPIO pins and GPIO 3 is used for mute LED. But, it seems some don't follow that rule, apparently. The right fix is simply to add an exception check. Could you try the patch below?
