From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Description of problem: i810_audio does not support the Intel 82801EB ICH5. The system under test has an ICH5 and an ADI1981B codec. The PCI ID for the ICH5 is 0x24d5. Audio works correctly with the same kernel on another system that has the same codec, but on an ICH4, PCI ID 0x24c5. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.20-9smp How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Load kernel on system 2.Check audio 3. Actual Results: No sound, no soundcard detected. Expected Results: Sound. Additional info:
we tried adding ICH5 support last minute but it really didn't work and crashed all over; it seems to not be just adding a PCI ID
The dell dimension 4600 systems built in sound card is this one. I tried adding the pci id but still no joy either. Though according to the dell forum this is working on suse linux 8.2. Are they using alsa?
ICH5 support was added in 2.4.21. (We have the same hardware, and Severn works fine on it.) Any chance of a 2.4.21 kernel release for Red Hat Linux 9? The relevant chipset is showing up in a *lot* of new hardware.
On my system (Motherboard i865) on Severn (with 2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp) this sound card is recognised as 82801EB AC'97. But when trying loading i810_audio module it reports errors similar to described by the Reporter: [root@localhost root]# insmod i810_audio Using /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_set_adc_rate_Rsmp_269f98e8 /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_alloc_codec_Rsmp_98951e4d /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_set_dac_rate_Rsmp_d7cbe165 /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_release_codec_Rsmp_ec27652f /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: unresolved symbol ac97_probe_codec_Rsmp_9fc40528 Boot log presents the following 'failure' entries: Oct 28 22:58:47 localhost firstboot: /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/driv ers/sound/i810_audio.o failed Oct 28 22:58:47 localhost firstboot: /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2088.nptlsmp/kernel/d rivers/sound/i810_audio.o: insmod i810_audio failed Question: Is there any chance that official RH9.1 will support this sound card?
I have the same audio card, and the module loads, however I can not get any sound from it. The kernel version is: 2.4.20-20.9.

#4 : You can't just use the i810_audio module, you need the other parts too, such as ac97_codec.o Also, there won't be a Red Hat 9.1, instead there is Fedora Core 1. The likelyhood of this appearing in a future RHL9 errata kernel is undecided at this time. With the EOL in just a few months, it depends how invasive the patch would end up being. As noted earlier in this bug, it isn't a case of just adding a PCI ID.
Is this bug related to bug #109528 for RHEL-3? That bug report was opened almost 5 months ago and no one from RedHat has even commented on it yet! Will this sound card ever be supported by RedHat?
Not in RHL9 no. For RHEL3, comment in the other bug.
