When I boot the 2.6.7 linux kernel with atiixp module, the module does not detect the audio device, however with the same module compiled into the 2.6.5 kernel, everything works fine. Something broke with this driver sometime between the 2.6.5 kernel and the 2.6.7 kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge to the latest gentoo-dev-sources kernel 2. select the atiixp option under the pci sound card section for ALSA and compile the kernel 3. load the module...the card does not get detected. Actual Results: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.4 (Mon May 17 14:31:44 2004 UTC). atiixp: codec reset timeout ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.0: suspend root hub ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.1: suspend root hub ATI IXP AC97 controller: probe of 0000:00:14.5 failed with error -13 usbcore: registered new driver snd-usb-audio ALSA device list: No soundcards found. Expected Results: I expect to see the sound card listed.
Can you reproduce this with development-sources?
I've recently upgraded my gentoo-dev-sources package to version 2.6.8-gentoo-r4 and I still get the same output. Did something change in ALSA to break the sound card support for the ATI IXP150?
when I insert the snd_atiixp module I get this output: atiixp: codec reset timeout ATI IXP AC97 controller: probe of 0000:00:14.5 failed with error -13 Does that help?
That looks like the problem. I'd suggest you test with clean 2.6.9-rc2, and if the problem still exists, file a bug at http://bugzilla.kernel.org as this appears to be an upstream issue.
it works now....when is the gentoo-dev-sources going to use this version of the kernel?
Shortly after 2.6.9 is officially released.
