Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when using headphones with my laptop (Thinkpad W550s) I get a repeating
cracking (~1sec intervalls) when nothing is playing.

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
I used headphones for the first time with Debian.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
I can't find a fitting setting, so I did nothing.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Hi DSA team,

Requesting for setting up loong64 buildds (Server machines) for Official 
port, I need to update the status of loong64 port.

Based on the content of the last email, I need to update the following,
- About Debian debci
We have prepared 2 debci machines (LoongArch Server machines) for debci 
team.

Please see https://lists.debian.org/debian-ci/2024/05/msg00012.html.
Currently loong64 was included in debci. Thanks elbrus, sincerely.
The build status of debci, can be found at 
https://ci.debian.net/user/britney/jobs?package=&trigger=&suite%5B%5D=unstable&arch%5B%5D=loong64.


- About Hardware Qualification
Grow the hardware ecosystem until it satisfies the requirements for an 
official port.
Document (with a wiki page named after the port below 
HardwareQualification) how the current/planned hardware for the port 
meets these requirements.
Currently I have added Hardware Qualification page for loong64. Thanks 
pabs reminder, sincerely.

Please see https://wiki.debian.org/HardwareQualification/loong64.

- About porterbox
We have sent a LoongArch Server machine (3C5000 7A2000) to Salzburg as a 
porter box for loong64.
The Server machine will be hosted in Salzburg, Austria at Conova and set 
up by glaubitz@d.o.


- About buildd-dsa
I hope that I could get guidance or suggestions from Debian DSA team.
We have prepared 4 ~ 6 LoongArch Server machines.
According to the needs expressed by the DSA, we can mail LoongArch 
Server machines (used as Official Port buildds) to different locations.


Your opinions are welcome.

Thanks,
Dandan Zhang

Hi DSA team,

I am continuously porting loong64 to the Debian community.
It's my pleasure to communicate and solve problems with DSA team.

When I requested that the loong64 port could be included amongst the 
Official ports,  I got from debian IRC that maybe I need to set up 
servers machines(buildds) for Official.
I learned that the Debian System Administration (DSA) team is 
responsible for Debian's infrastructure.
I would like to send Server machines to Debian Official. Could you tell 
me how to do?


- About Server machines
The LoongArch machines are used in Personal Computer, Servers and so on.
We can provide stable Server machines, please see 
https://www.loongson.cn/application/list?id=3.


- About loong64 buildds in Unofficial port
We have deployed 6 machines and currently have 6 loong64 buildds.
Please see 
https://buildd.debian.org/status/architecture.php?a=loong64&suite=sid.


- About Debian debci
I am preparing debci machines for debci team.
Please see https://lists.debian.org/debian-ci/2024/05/msg00012.html.

- About ArchiveQualification page
I have created a ArchiveQualification page for loong64. I will update 
continuously.

Please see https://wiki.debian.org/ArchiveQualification/loong64.

- About architecture requalification status for trixie
I have adding the loong64 port to arch_qualify page.
Please see https://release.debian.org/testing/arch_qualify.html.


For loong64, the status of porterbox, buildd-dsa and autopkgtest in the 
arch_qualify page is "NO".
About porterbox and buildd-dsa, I hope that I could get guidance or 
suggestions from Debian DSA team.
I am doing this in good faith. Any resources and machines, I am willing 
to do.


If you have any questions about the loong64 port you can contact me at 
any time?
If I've handled any of the processes wrong, please don't feel troubled 
and please correct me.


Thanks,
Dandan Zhang

I have a similar issue on a workstation with Ubuntu 22.04. What is your 
operating system version? I believe the issue started manifesting once I 
installed Jack. Do you have Jack on your machine?

however, "costs to attend" are not the same as "costs while attending"...

But that ecosystem will adapt to the point where we no longer have a place in

* Package name    : systemd-boot-installer

Can this be merged into the normal systemd source package?


I feel like from a d-i perspective that'd be highly unusual? Having the 
purely d-i-specific components be owned by d-i is the common setup.


If it doesn't make sense to merge it (i.e. because it is a glue package 
between two unstable interfaces), then that is fine, but I think that 
the interfaces on both the d-i and the systemd side are stable enough.

Also & related, https://wiki.debian.org/HostingBSP#Sponsorships says
(emphasis mine):

  participants to a BSP can get a reimbursement of up to 100 USD for their
  *travel fees*.

whereas the discussions around the MiniDebConf Berlin were about
sponsored food, IIRC.

Note that I'm not saying "Debian must pay for food for a week for
all people at any price, no matter what", just that "100 USD for
expenses" is not the same as "100 USD for their travel fees".

No big deal, just maybe a chance for clarification before the next
Debian event :)


Cheers,
gregor

Hi Andrius!

I'm running an up-to-date Debian 12 64Bit (bookworm) and I don't have 
Jack installed.
After some messing with duckduckgo the problem seems to be, that the 
system puts the audio-chip to sleep, but not the headphone-amplifier.

I hope someone from Debian can fix it.
