patch to fix the problem
Also worth noting is that no sound comes out of the box on either U4 or U5 with the patch mentioned in comment #1. This patch is being proposed as a temporary solution. Upstream kernles produce sound, but this would require a more extensive backport to get working properly. This system booted fine on U4, while U5 panics the system on boot. Since Keyword Regression exists, this is a blocker, not an exception. Cleared exception flag. Set blocker flag." This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. committed in stream U5 build 49. A test kernel with this patch is available from http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/rhel4/ An advisory has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report.
