sndconfig reports that the ALi M5451 PCI South Bridge Audio is not supported. However support is provided by the trident audio driver in 2.2.16 and later. Here's the entry from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf class: AUDIO bus: PCI detached: 0 driver: unknown desc: "Acer Laboratories Inc. [ALi]|M5451 PCI South Bridge Audio" vendorId: 10b9 deviceId: 5451 subVendorId: 10b9 subDeviceId: 5451 pciType: 1 This sould chip is included on the API UP1100 motherboard.
platform should be alpha
Created attachment 3483 [details] Enable trident sound driver when CONFIG_ALPHA_GENERIC
I've attached a patch against 2.2.16-24 that enables the trident audio driver whent he kernel type is GENERIC, before this would only work is the kernel type was Nautilus.
Oops, we mapped the *other* version of the ALI bridge in the pcitable. Fixed in CVS of kudzu, will be in next build. Assigning to the kernel for the kernel patch.
FWIW, the patch has been accepted for 2.2.18.
Is this issue still unresolved?
detection seems to be fixed with 7.1RC1.
