[Bug 1537465] Re: Idle too much time when loading snd-usb-audio.ko

 

Cui Wei, as per http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-
page.aspx?pid=4127#bios an update to your computer's buggy and outdated
BIOS is available (F9). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not.
3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Idle too much time when loading snd-usb-audio.ko

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 amd64 Desktop, with kernel 4.3. And my USB
  Video Camera is from Gsou, containing both camera device and
  microphone device.

  When booting Ubuntu, after login ubuntu session, system freeze for
  around 40 seconds !!

  Finnally I found out that its "snd-usb-audio.ko" that makes it too
  slow when login. So I added "blacklist snd-usb-audio" into
  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.list, then everything is okay, login step
  works normally.

  After login desktop, I opened a terminal and execute "sudo modprobe
  snd-usb-audio" to load microphone device manually, then it's still
  very slow to load --

  ===============
  ghostplant@ghostplant:~$ sudo modprobe snd-usb-audio

  real	0m41.301s
  user	0m0.540s
  sys	0m2.912s
  ===========

  After waiting 40s to load snd-usb-audio, "dmesg | mesg" displays a new
  message:

  [  806.057680] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio

  So, I think there is a bug containning inside snd-usb-audio.ko,
  because it's not supposed to cost so much time.

  Note:

  In gnome-session, snd-usb-audio makes login step very slow like to be
  freeze:

  Click Login (<1s) =>
  gnome-session loading components (compiz, unity-settings-daemon, .. # some required reading data from snd-hda-audio, >40s)
  Show Desktop (<1s)
