I have a Dell 610 laptop and I can't get the sound to work with system-config-soundcard. On system boot, there is this in /var/log/messages: Jun 14 22:06:38 surrey kernel: codec_semaphore: semaphore is not ready [0x1][0x700300] Jun 14 22:06:38 surrey kernel: codec_write 0: semaphore is not ready for register 0x4 Jun 14 22:08:22 surrey kernel: codec_semaphore: semaphore is not ready [0x1][0x700300] Jun 14 22:08:22 surrey kernel: codec_write 0: semaphore is not ready for register 0x4 I have tried muting the headphone which I saw helped some people in FC3 with sound problems. No help here. This sound card worked with system-config-soundcard in FC3. This current system is a new install of FC4. One thing that may make my setup different is that I have compiled the latest dri freedesktop code for the i915 display chip to get my display going. (I had to pretend that the FC4 kernel was 2.6.12 to make it compile). I also installed the dri code in FC3 and the sound was OK there. lspci looks like: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev d3) 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.3 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 03) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) SATA Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 01) 03:01.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments: Unknown device 8036 03:01.5 Communication controller: Texas Instruments: Unknown device 8038 03:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (rev 05) -- Norman Gaywood, Systems Administrator School of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2351, Australia norm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Phone: +61 (0)2 6773 2412 http://turing.une.edu.au/~norm Fax: +61 (0)2 6773 3312 Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
