Re: New Ubuntu Kernel 2.6.37-2

 

Thanks for this update, Adam. On a Z1390, suspend-resume works perfectly now (in Intel mode). NVidia work well (3D acceleration works) but suspend-resume does not work.

I still have 3 issues:

First, sound does not work anymore. I get this log (/var/log/syslog) :

pulseaudio[2784]: module.c: Failed to load module "module-alsa-card" (argument: "device_id="0" name="pci-0000_00_1b.0" card_name="alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0" tsched=yes ignore_dB=no card_properties="module-udev-detect.discovered=1""): initialization failed.

Sound did work with 2.6.36.0-vaioz. Am I the only one with this problem? Any suggestions?


A second problem I got with all your modified kernels is that the content of
/sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/speed_stamina is always speed, even if booting with 2.6.28 successfully lights the correct switch position and the correct graphics card show up with "lspic | grep VGA".

Surprisingly, if I run "echo stamina >/sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/speed_stamina" (or echo speed) it correctly changes the switch led.

I had to change your /usr/local/sbin/vaioz_gfx_config file to replace
[ "$(cat /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/speed_stamina)" = "stamina" ] && from_nvidia || to_nvidia
to
lspci | grep "00:02.0" && from_nvidia || to_nvidia

Beside this change, should I worry about this speed_stamina problem?

Third, I am unable to get accelerated 3D with intel card. The /var/log/Xorg.0.log says:
[   354.286] (II) LoadModule: "glx"
[   354.287] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module glx
[   354.287] (II) UnloadModule: "glx"
[   354.287] (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module does not exist, 0)

So where do I get this /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so that seems to be missing? I can't figure out which package is required.



Sincerely,

Sébastien

Hi All,

	Just to let you know that I've updated my kernel to one based on the
Ubuntu 2.6.37-2 version. I've patched in the latest drm-intel-next, as well as
my version of Norbert's np7 sony-laptop module and my fix for the NVidia sound
chip in stamina mode.
