AMD, what is the current status of this bug fix? The fix should be present in the latest RHEL5.3 Snapshot. Please test and send feedback ASAP.
We have confirmed that the patch has been added to RHEL5 kernels like 2.6.18-125 and 2.6.18-124. But since the audio HW device is NOT available to us yet, we are NOT able to test it so far. thanks. I'm changing the status into VERIFIED, if unfortunately the device can NOT work in the future , we may create another new BZ.
