enable sound card with PNPACPI

enable sound card with PNPACPI

[Damien Challet]

Dear All,

I understand that in principle the equivalent of 

setpnp 0x0e on

is (with PNPACPI)

echo 1 > /sys/device/pnp0/00:0e/power

(from memory)

The only problem is that even if I "activate" all the devices, I still cannot 
load the needed module (on a thinkpad 600e, module snd-cs4236).  

What is needed in addition to that ?

Many thanks

Damien

Hi,

I think you should try
echo activate > /sys/devices/pnp0/00:03/resources

and check dmesg for feedback

That worked to the point that the module can be loaded. However, when I try to 
play a sound, 

e.g. aplay sound.wav, 

aplay seems to wait for something (does not start playing).

I tried to echo -n 1 to the power/state of everything.

Thanks for the help.

Hi,

You can also try 

echo auto > /sys/devices/pnp0/00:03/resources
echo activate > /sys/devices/pnp0/00:03/resources

and check again.
