By you. > 1- I repeatedly told folks that I DO NOT OWN THIS HARDWARE. I am just maintaining the kmod because nobody else does and people need it. I would be more than happy to give it away to someone who owns the hardware and can do tests. 2- The issue has been reported and the package will not be pushed to stable. If you are using rawhide, you should get used to such things. 3- However pulseaudio is not just in rawhide. It is in stable. Even worse, it is enabled by DEFAULT! Even more worse, IT IS THE DEFAULT SOUND SYSTEM IN FEDORA!!! I have every right to blame on who made this happen.

But swallow the big bite. IT DID NOT WORK. So, please for the good of humanity, kill this package. I had to change my PhD thesis topic twice. Why? Because my calculations didn't work out right (I couldn't disprove my theory either). So I had to put hundreds of pages of calculations and more than a year-full of work to trash, literally. It happens. I just accepted the fact and worked on something else. If you are using firefox, just start typing "pulseaudio is..." on the search bar with google engine. You'll see what suggestions it will give you along the way. Best, Orcan -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
