I don't have a clue yet, but I thought if I posted my stuff, it might help. First, I think BIOS settings can affect the success/failure/stability of things. It might be worth experimenting there although you don't mention having changed anything. On my system, there seems to be a little "flakiness" re the sound. Sometimes just clicking the "Open Volume Control" and muting/unmuting a few things fixes it. This seems to be needed less with recent updates to the 4.x stuff (again, 32 bit). There is a kernel parameter that may have affect - see the end of this post. I wish that I could be more helpful, but I just use the stuff. :-( > For some reason the motherboard's on board sound no > longer works (worked with CentOS 5.0). dmesg gives me: > > ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [ALKC] enabled at IRQ 22 > ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:11.5[C] -> Link [ALKC] -> GSI 22 (level, > low) -> IRQ 90 > PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:11.5 to 64 > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] > codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] > codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] > codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] > AC'97 0 access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer. > ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:11.5 disabled > VIA 82xx Audio: probe of 0000:00:11.5 failed with error -5 ================================= via82xx: Assuming DXS channels with 48k fixed sample rate.
