Yeah.. I know. fedora-devel is not a place for discussing
bugs but
I'll risk.
As (I hope) many of You already know kernel-2.6.27.9-159
which was
pushed as a security update has broken sound on many systems
(mostly notebooks) -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477954. The
reason for
this is the new ALSA (1.0.18a).
There are a lot of "+1"s and "me too"s in bugzilla and if we
consider the amount of people who don't know how to report
bugs,
add those who are on New Year holidays it becomes clear
that this
affects a lot of our users.
So users have two choices now:
1. Have no sound.
2. Stick with 2.6.27.9-134 (this is not as easy as it seems
cause
the new update will be downloaded and installed automatically).
I do understand that many developers are on holidays
themselves,
but I'm also sure this is a REAL problem which should be
resolved
ASAP.
So I just wanted to know what are we going to do about this.
You can try the latest alsa snapshot available in ATrpms:
http://dl.atrpms.net/f10-x86_64/atrpms/bleeding/alsa-kmdl-2.6.27.9-159.fc10-1.0.18a.snap-74.fc10.x86_64.rpm
http://dl.atrpms.net/f10-i386/atrpms/bleeding/alsa-kmdl-2.6.27.9-159.fc10-1.0.18a.snap-74.fc10.i686.rpm
It has a lot of recent fixes and it is working just fine for
me and for others. I also had no sound with kernel 159, before
installing this new alsa.
If you remove the rpm later, you go back to the original sound
modules (nothing is overwritten).
Good luck.

Still doesn't work.
Have you rebooted?

Yes I have.
And I forgot that I've tried the exact same RPM yesterday with same results.
If you look at bugzilla I've reported that version as not working yesterday.
