Not necessarily; what is your output for "cat /proc/interrupts"? > I am using Debian stable with linux kernel 2.6.18-6-686. > > $ lspci [...] > 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 > Sound Controller (rev a0) Make sure that the module is unloaded (run "modprobe -r snd-intel8x0" if necessary), then load it again and activate the buggy_semaphore workaround: modprobe snd-intel8x0 buggy_semaphore=1 Does that eliminate "semaphore is not ready" messages? -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian |
