[Solved] Kernel 2.6.34 and bad sound

Hello everyone, I've just updated to kernel 2.6.34 and... surprise! Sound is jerkily if I play a video on my machine. If I watch a video, for instance, from YouTube, both video and audio runs faster.
I'm running Arch x86_64 and
00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
is the audio card.

2. Could also be a BIOS issue.
Some motherboard manufacturers (e.g. ASUS) are notorious for their buggy BIOSes, that affect foremost:
- virtualization extensions
- sound
3. Is this a desktop, or a laptop?
This is Samsung laptop (R20plus, NP-R20FY0C if it helps), three years old, with ATI SB600 chipset and ATI Xpress 1250 onboard VGA card.
It had plenty issues with video (as I said, especially with KMS, but with generic VESA drivers sometimes too), and some problems with correct HDA codec autodetection (until 2.6.33).
Just rebooted into hand-made 2.6.33 under "testing" system, all seems to be OK there.
Also, these glithes are not constant for me, they begin if my system is under load only (not really heavy one, for example, it begin to glitch if I scroll page in Konqueror (my main test for this bug)

[SOLVED] Kernel Panic - caps lock and scroll lock flashing

So I just spent a whole bunch of $$$ on a new desktop, and a couple of hours putting it all together, now I can't get anything except kernel panics when booting the Arch install CD
Hardware:
Core 2 Quad Q8400
Gigabyte EP43-UD3L
8gb RAM
2 x Seagate SATA 160gb
2 x Seagate SATA 1tb
So far I've tried:
- Arch ISO 2008.06 and 2009.02
- Fail Safe Defaults in the BIOS
- 'noapic' boot option
- HPET in 32 and 64 bit mode
The strange thing is that the panic comes at various stages - sometimes before the init scripts start, sometimes after, and also during boot it complains about errors with fd0 - except there is no floppy drive.
Any ideas folks?

Urgh, appears to be bad RAM... Running memtest and switching sticks in and out only shows errors with one particular RAM stick installed. I'll leave this stick out and try installing Arch again once the current memtest pass is finished.
I'd have expected better from Patriot!

Ok, I have the solution. Multitouch is now working with kernel 3.2.1. It seems the kernel devs are separating multitouch devices from the generic input stack as they can cause issues. Here is the reply I got from the linux-input mailing list:
Well, many eGalax devices are multitouch devices, and can not be
handled by the generic input hid layer without having strange issues.
We have a patch in 3.2 that auto detect such devices and release them
from the generic input stack.
Then, it's easier for people to handle the devices through
hid-multitouch as the recompilation of the kernel is not required
anymore.
I also submitted a patch to catch multitouch devices in
hid-multitouch, but it has not been accepted as it would require
everybody to load hid-multitouch for every hid device.
To enable your device, do (as root)
# modprobe hid-multitouch
# echo 3 VID PID 104 >
/sys/module/hid_multitouch/drivers/hid\:hid-multitouch/new_id
where:
- 3 is the bus, usb here
- VID: vendor ID (must be 0eef in your case)
- PID: product ID
- 104 is the number of the right class of multitouch device to use
(see MT_CLS_* definitions in hid-multitouch)
VID/PID can be retrieved from lsusb.
If it's working, then you should also give us your PID so that we can
add it in the source of hid-multitouch.
So, I did the following to enable multitouch:
1. Before upgrading your kernel (should also work after, but may as well be prepared):
# lsusb
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 0eef:7302 D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd
VID is 0eef
PID is 7302
2. Now we need to get the MT_CLS_* definition for our device (extracted from http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/dr … titouch.c)
86
87 /* classes of device behavior */
88 #define MT_CLS_DEFAULT 0x0001
89
90 #define MT_CLS_SERIAL 0x0002
91 #define MT_CLS_CONFIDENCE 0x0003
92 #define MT_CLS_CONFIDENCE_MINUS_ONE 0x0004
93 #define MT_CLS_DUAL_INRANGE_CONTACTID 0x0005
94 #define MT_CLS_DUAL_INRANGE_CONTACTNUMBER 0x0006
95 #define MT_CLS_DUAL_NSMU_CONTACTID 0x0007
96
97 /* vendor specific classes */
98 #define MT_CLS_3M 0x0101
99 #define MT_CLS_CYPRESS 0x0102
100 #define MT_CLS_EGALAX 0x0103
101
I have an eGalax device, so I need MT_CLS_* = 0x0103 (259 in decimal)
3. We have all we need to set up the device. Install kernel 3.2.1
# pacman -S linux
4. Start the hid-multitouch module on boot
# nano /etc/rc.conf
# HARDWARE
# MODULES: Modules to load at boot-up. Blacklisting is no longer supported.
# Replace every !module by an entry as on the following line in a file in
# /etc/modprobe.d:
# blacklist module
# See "man modprobe.conf" for details.
MODULES=(hid-multitouch)
Now reboot to see if your device is auto configured with the hid-multitouch module. If so, you are all good to go. If not, continue as follows:
5. Ensure your device details are passed to the hid-multitouch module
# nano /etc/rc.local
echo 3 0eef 7302 259 > /sys/module/hid_multitouch/drivers/hid\:hid-multitouch/new_id
The command above contains my device details, replace with your details obtained from steps 1 & 2 above:
echo 3 VID PID MT_CLS_*
(If someone can point me in a better direction for setting up these details at boot, it would be appreciated)
Reboot again to see if the device is now working. If not, you may need binary drivers from the vendor. I know in my case, my device needs the eGalax touch daemon driver. A package for this is available in the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=55050
Of course, as the email states, if you have a device that is not automatically configured with the hid-multitouch module, yet it does work after step 5, submit your device details to the linux-input mailing list so it may be added to the source.
Cheers.

[Solved] Kernel 2.6.24 and Benq DVD Drive

Hello,
I have a Benq DW1650 DVD burner and it has disappeared since the 2.6.24 kernel came out. I have verified by reverting to 2.6.23 and it reappears.
dmesg shows hundreds of these:
hdc: status error: error=0x00 { }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hdc: drive not ready for command
hdc: status error: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
There is a workaround that has brought it back for me on the Ubuntu forums:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/182996
It is basically a reset and then reactivate DMA:
hdparm -w /dev/hdc
hdparm -d1 /dev/hdc
It seems to only be a problem for some drives.

Try to switch over to pata (the new ide drivers) and see if it helps you.
Info:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Con … able_hooks and
http://archlinux.org/news/272/
The biggest caveat with switching over to pata is the change of the device names from hdX to sdY.

[Solved] Kernel 2.6.28 and asus_acpi

There's something wrong with asus_acpi module since when I boot my machine I get this message error:
FATAL: Error inserting asus_acpi (/lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/kernel/drivers/acpi/asus_acpi.ko): No such device
I've searched for asus_acpi.ko and it's just located in that folder, so it must be something else.
some additional info from rc.conf:

IPhones 3GS dead pixel and bad sound quality

As i was going through some photos i notice a small white dot then looking closer to the screen i recently notice about 4 dead pixels and also when playing music through headphones the sound quality is not clear. I tested my iphone and a ipod touch with the same song and the results were the ipod touch had better sound than my phone. Can apple fix this?? Thanks

As for dead pixels, Apple considers a small number as unavoidable with LCD displays and covers only a "high number" under the warranty. Apple would have to inspect the phone and determine if it's a covered defect. Make an appointment with an Apple Store Genius Bar.

Pixelating video and bad sound

Hello all. I work for a student radio station at Penn State. We are trying to convert a VHS recording of a TV program to a MP4 file using Final Cut Pro. We got the video captured and recorded, but it pixelates about once a second. Also, the sound crackles at almost the exact same times. Since none of us really know how to use the program, we are looking for some help on using it. Thanks in advance. If anyone has any questions for me, please ask.
HP 820 Windows XP Pro

The VHS sounds fine.
This link is the directions that PSU gives on how to do this. This might help some too.

[Solved] Kernel BUG at include/linux/netdevice.h:501, and sky2?

So, ever since a certain point in time between kernel 3.11.x and now (3.12.5-1), I have been getting this strangely inconsistent error on bootup. I would estimate that about 3 out of every 4 reboots leads to this error message, and the bootup process terminates in a black screen and what (appears) to be a system hang. However I CTL+ALT+F2, log in, and I output dmesg to a boot log, and everything my eyes have seen is now your visual property as well. The remaining 25% of my reboots patches through and boots directly to my window manager successfully. Now the output seems to be screaming to me "sky2 is the culprit", as EIP seems to be pointing in its general direction at the time of error. However, I am more inclined to believe that my hardware's interaction with the driver is more likely to be responsible. If sky2 was actually a real problem, I doubt I would be the only one complaining about this. Nonetheless, I am quite vexed, and would greatly appreciate anbody's help here. Much appreciated, and perhaps I can provide you with some other (perhaps) useful information:

UPDATE: So I ran some low level troubleshooting and decided to test out the linux-lts (3.10.24-1-lts) kernel. No problems at all. Everything works fine with my ethernet adapter and the sky2 module. It just appears that something occurred in the newer kernels to break the interface for at least one Marvell adapter. This solution works for now, but I suppose I should file a bug report eventually. In the meantime, any insight is welcome.

I had the same problem on my iPad v2 IOS 7. But it sorted itself after a hard reset (power and home button) followed by a soft rest ( just power) . I lost all sound at this point. Then restarted again with a hard reset.
Hope that fixes your iPad v2

Alsa sound disappeared between kernel 2.6.30 and 2.6.33

My last working alsa was running on kernel 2.6.30.6. Some months ago, I upgraded and the sound disappeared. Due to other programs, I now want a fully updated kernel and get 2.6.33-2-1. The alsa sound still does'nt work. I get the sound back by downgrading to 2.6.30, but other things then fails.
I'm using an LG A1 Express. As far as I can see, everything looks ok, but I don't hear any sound.
I have used alsaconf, and got expected output. Alsamixer is used to unmute and set up audio-sources.
Grateful to any suggestions!

[SOLVED]Different versions of installed and loaded kernel

After a system upgrade I have issues booting.
Kernel was updated from 3.8.8-2 to 3.8.10-1.
systemctl --failed says slim, systemd-modules-load and ufw services failed. I'm able to log in and I can see that loaded kernel is 3.8.8, but pacman says the installed one is 3.8.10.
Upgrade process didn't generate any error message, pacman.log also shows that image generations were successful and they were created on /boot (separate partition).
It's a laptop, I have UEFI mode disabled in BIOS. Linux-lts is installed, too, same problem.
Any idea why is this issue and how can be solved? Thanks. I didn't find a solution among the topics, however I saw similar issues.
PS: systemctl's output doesn't break long lines, just shortens them. Any way to make them readable?
Edit:
ls-l /boot shows that the files are old, so they were not updated during the system update.

Exactly.
I have files in /lib/modules/3.8.10-1-ARCH
I mounted my root partition from liveCD and /boot is empty.
It's LUKS encryptied partition in case it counts.
====================================
Update:
First I downgraded to 3.8.8 and I was able to boot with it. Then I had to remove manually some files. Seemed that virtualbox-host-modules was corrupted, no package owned the files in /lib/modules/extramodules-3.8. After I reinstalled it and removed netcfg as well (using networkmanager for the laptop anyway) I managed to update kernel, mkinitcpio run successfully and created the images.
I still don't understand why the image files weren't updated or why there wasn't any error message...

[solved] kernel-2.6.20.1-1 and ati-fglrx

Hi,
I updated to kernel26-2.6.20.1-1 and reinstalled the ati-fglrx package.
If I try to modprobe the fglrx module I get this error
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.20-ARCH/video/fglrx.ko): Invalid module format
Seems that the current ati-fglrx package was compiled against kernel-2.6.20 and not against the latest kernel (2.6.20.1) cause with the 2.6.20 kernel package it worked...

hmm, I compiled the kernel with abs and changed the config (speedstepping does not work correctly with the stock config).
I changed also the CPU-type to PentiumM. I think that's the problem, isn't it?
p.s.
I have another problem with my printer.

Is it possible that the self compiled kernel is the reason for that problem?

Audio Sounds good in SP and bad in FCP

Hi,
I preface: Recently i did a clean up of system with prefernce manager and pro maintenance tools.
I just sent an audio file from FCP to Soundtrack Pro (SP) to get rid of clicks. Sounded great in SP but with more clicks than it originally had in FCP. Never had this problem. I'm sure it's related to the fact when i went to export the file from SP after taking clicks out it asked me if I wanted to Reference Source Audio or Include Source Audio. I chose Include Source Audio even though it said in the box that it wouldn't play correctly if I didn't reference source audio, but it said i could change the setting in preferences back to the default. I did change it back to reference source audio, resaved and exported and it still has all those clicks in FCP.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
joe

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your help. I played it in i tunes and fcp today and it sounds good in both, but yesterday it was cracking throughout. I don't understand. Bizarre.
Thanks again!
joe

[Solved] Conflict: ATI Radeon HDMI vs onboard sound crashes PulseAudio

Firstly, please excuse my ignorance about audio issues!
I have a mate running Arch who has an ATI Radeon HD5450 graphics card (using radeon driver) and onboard sound also. He doesn't want to use the graphics card for audio purposes at all. He's getting (seemingly) random switches between PulseAudio thinking its default audio sink is the onboard sound and the graphics card. When the latter happens, PulseAudio crashes out.
(Tried setting the kernel boot parameter 'radeon.audio=1' to try and make the HDMI audio work, but to no avail. Though card is in radeon driver matrix saying HDMI audio feature should work with this card.)
Issuing these commands usually gets things up and running again:
pulseaudio --start && pacmd set-default-sink alsa_output.xxxxx.analog-stereo
where alsa_output.xxxxx.analog-stereo is the appropriate string from the 'Default Sink' line of the ouput from the command:
pactl stat
Tried switching the HDMI input/output off using pavucontrol but after an indeterminate time it creeps back and kills off PulseAudio.
Can the graphics card be blacklisted as a soundcard by PulseAudio or Alsa in some way?
Any ideas to resolve this most welcome!
PS: Had a look through the Arch Wiki on PulseAudio and it helped quite a bit with understanding pactl and pacmd commands.
Edit @29/01/14: Problem solved - by going deeper to kernel level!
From the wiki:
If both devices use the same module then we can use the *enable* parameter from snd-hda-intel module, it's an array of booleans that can enable/disable the desired sound card [put in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf]:
e.g
options snd-hda-intel enable=1,0
Useful commands to check situation:
cat /proc/asound/cards
cat /proc/asound/modules
aplay -l

Hi there!
If you're using the latest kernel spin (3.13), you don't have to really put that kernel parameter in your bootloader config anymore because it's enabled by default already. Which DE are you using? GNOME, GNOME Flashback, Cinnamon and Unity have all integrated with pulseaudio and no extra configuration is needed. If you're using Xfce, LXDE, KDE or any other WM/DE, you'll have to install pulseaudio-alsa and alsa-utils to get it working. That made my HDMI audio work out of the box on my ancient KDE session with the open source driver.
I hope this helps!
Best of Luck
Hi,
okay I just removed the kernel option, thanks for the advice!
I'm using xfce and I already had installed pulseaudio-alsa and alsa-utils, anyway the strange thing is that before switching to headphones (on the other card) it worked, but now it seems that is dead...
Thank you for helping!

Bad sound in my x-fi audio after windows upd

I have accidentally downloaded this @ windows update on tuesday?
Creative - Sound - Creative X-Fi Audio Processor (WDM)Creative Sound sofware update released in June, 2007?
After that all my sound options were gone and i have a terrible bad sound.
Is there anyone who can help me to solve is this problem?
I am running win xp

If you need to remove entries from the registry it's not as bad as some people make it to be. You do have to be very careful because it can disable your system. First go to the Device Manager and uninstall your sound card. Go to Start Menu and click on RUN, enter "regedit" and hit OK. Click on the + tabs by My Computer then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
Make?a backup copy?by going to the FILE tab at the top and select the Export option. Name the file HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and save?it to your desktop. You can use this file to restore your registry to?it's original state?if needed.
Now click SYSTEM and then CurrentControlSet then click on and highlight Services. Go back to the top?and under the Edit tab select Find. Enter "Creative" in the box and then click on the Find Next tab. This will find any reference to the word Creative. Any time you find a reference delete the folder that the reference exists in. Go back up to the Edit tab after each time you delete a folder and click the Find Next tab and it will search for the next reference. Do this until you find all references in the Services folder. This should remove all the drivers for your Creative sound card but will also remove any drivers for ALL Creative products on your computer. If you only have the sound card this won't be a problem. Close the Registry Editor and restart you computer. You should be able to reinstall your card with the original CD or the driver of your choice. If you don't use the CD you'll have to tell Windows where to find the drivers. Restart your system a couple of times to make sure all your services load and it runs as it should. When your satisfied that all is Ok you can delete the file you saved to your desktop. ?Just be very careful what you delete and you will be OK. If this doesn't work you may have to format the hard dri've and start from scratch. Good luck.
