Re: Sound/missing sof firmware in CentOS since 8.4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hell again --

I finally fixed my no sound with no firmware issue for my built-in Intel controlled speakers. I'm running on Stream 8 now. DNF was NOT picking up the two alsa packs I needed from -- http://mirror.datto.com/CentOS/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/ (just a random mirror)

But there they were...

alsa-sof-firmware-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm <http://mirror.datto.com/CentOS/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/alsa-sof-firmware-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm>

and

alsa-sof-firmware-debug-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm <http://mirror.datto.com/CentOS/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/alsa-sof-firmware-debug-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm>

So I downloaded the rpms and installed with dnf using

dnf --allowerasing install (path to rpm)/alsa-sof-firmware-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm <http://mirror.datto.com/CentOS/8-stream/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/alsa-sof-firmware-1.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm>

etc...

This kept my existing alsa main in tact and just added the firmware files.

Now on to other issues -- playing .wav files without benefit of GUI.

Hello all --

I switched to Stream yesterday hoping it would fix some issues I'd been having with CentOS 8.4 but alas it did not.

I started out installing 8.2, maybe kernel 4.18.0 -147?, on my laptop about 2 months or so ago and the sound worked fine. Now, it does not. I seem to be running into this problem...

I have located the rpm for this SOF package but as it states in this link, it can NOT be installed with my current alsa version. Thoughts? Guidance?
