As an additional twist, I realized that the whine only starts when entering KDE. I turned off artsd thinking that was the culprit, but it made no difference. rmmod snd-intel8x0; modprobe snd-intel8x0 removes the whine and makes the sound card work properly once KDE is booted. Very strange! Even further, this only seems to happen for a user with a pre-exsiting .kde directory. A fresh user with a Fedora-created .kde does not encounter this problem. Given the relative obscurity of it I think it would be fair to just mark this as WONTFIX, though this is a fairly common upgrade path and sound chip so it might be worth further investigation? I could tinker with the KDE startup and/or post an archive of the .kde dir that is causing the problem if anyone is interested. In the meantime I am advising the user to delete her .kde dir and adjust all the configuration settings back by hand. If you fire up a mixer and turn down the various recording things it should go away. Can you let me know if that helps ? Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you. |
