[Bug 1296373] Re: [PATCH] Fix sound on PowerPC

[Boris Reinhard]

Sadly I can't do any further testing on this at the moment as my ibook
recently checked out for good, but at some point I plan on getting
another one off of ebay.

I'm also still in contact with Mr. Ellerman and although he made no
promises and it of course is in no way any priority I'm still optimistic
we eventually will at least land the id38 fix.

** No longer affects: ubuntu

Title:
  [PATCH] Fix sound on PowerPC

Status in hw-detect package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in hw-detect package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This patch is one of several needed to fix sound on PowerPC.  The
  wrong modules are loaded/blacklisted on many machines, causing sound
  not to work or worse the fatal "Fixing recursive fault rebooted is
  needed!" bug -
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1066435

  The attached patch incorporates the suggestions in this debian bug
  report https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=650588 , and
  additionally splits off the 'i2s-a' machines which nolonger use
  snd_powermac (at least that is what I understand from this linuxppc-
  dev message -
  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.ppc.embedded/51204 ).

  It would be excellent if this could make it into Trusty.  I'm going to
  submit another bug on the casper package.
