Last upgrade and HP TC4400
« on: 2013/07/24, 12:49:44 »
Hello,

this is a fully intel machine (ICH7, wifi 3945); it was a bit (kinda 1-2 months) I did not du this machine (it still had kde 4.8 and krnl 3.7-2 on board) and, after full du accomplished, 3 problems emerged:

1. no wifi
2. no audio
3. there is a point in which boot stops waiting for some device (?which one?) then timeouts and resumes

Problem 1 was due to rfkill: an "rfkill unblock all" made the trick, but I had to put it in /etc/rc.local; now this is not normal, why?

Problem 2 was the PC not loading snd-hda-intel, which now I also had to put in /etc/modules; why this?

Problem 3 I dunno if it is tied to one of the previous ones, but no clear clue about it; there is some modprobe that fails. Here is dmesg where I show where the machine stops (around 21 seconds):

So may this be due to failing hw, bad du, device-mapper, the hell, or what?
Thanks

Prob 1: No clue

Prob 2+3: I am almost 100% sure it's

This version is working for me. No delay during boot and working sound 
even with oss-depending software (wmmixer).

Thisone is *not* working. Delay during boot an no sound.

Ok, you can't code, but you still might be able to write a bug report for Debian's sake

Hi sorry for delay, long time away not using that pc.

I purged oss-compat, will try to comment out the module from /etc/modules and let you know in case if it wasn't the case. If you don't hear from me it means it's fixed.

Thanks
