Package: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64 Version: 2.6.22-5 Severity: normal If I prevent the snd_hda_intel module from loading, my laptop's (emulated) beeper speaker, running through the soundcard, works (although very loudly! Without the sound modules, one doesn't have a volume control) from X or the console.
As soon as I insert the snd_hda_intel module, I lose the beeper speaker, from then on until a reboot. This is using both of options: options snd-hda-intel model=dell-laptop probe_mask=1 options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 The mixer doesn't seem to know about a beeper speaker, which I find odd, given my previous laptops who had a volume knob on the beeper speaker. amixer output is: Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 255 Mono: Front Left: Playback 255 [100%] Front Right: Playback 255 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Front',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Front Left: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Front Right: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [on] Simple mixer control 'Surround',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 127 Mono: Front Left: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Front Right: Playback 127 [100%] [0.00dB] [off] Simple mixer control 'Line In as Output',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'ADCMux',0 Capabilities: cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Front Left: Capture [off] Front Right: Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Digital Input Source',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Analog Inputs' 'Digital Mic 1' Item0: 'Analog Inputs' Simple mixer control 'InMux',0 Capabilities: cvolume Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 4 Front Left: Capture 0 [0%] [0.00dB] Front Right: Capture 0 [0%] [0.00dB] Simple mixer control 'InVol',0 Capabilities: cvolume Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 15 Front Left: Capture 0 [0%] [0.00dB] Front Right: Capture 0 [0%] [0.00dB] Simple mixer control 'Input Source',0 Capabilities: cenum Items: 'Line' Item0: 'Line' Surely the hardware can do it, and surely the soundcard driver knows about the beeper, since it turns it off. Maybe a case of an immature driver for new hardware that will work in the next kernel version (this soundcard also doesn't seem to sense the headphone socket either, and pumps the sound out of both the internal speakers and the headphone). -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64 depends on: ii e2fsprogs 1.40.2-1 ext2 file system utilities and lib ii initramfs-tools [linux-initr 0.91b tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.3-pre11-4 tools for managing Linux kernel mo linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64 recommends no packages. -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/abort-install-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/initrd-2.6.22-3-amd64: shared/kernel-image/really-run-bootloader: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.22-3-amd64: false linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.22-3-amd64: false linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.22-3-amd64: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.22-3-amd64: true linux-image-2.6.22-3-amd64/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
