Without your patch, sound on my dell inspiron 3500 laptop works fine until the first APM suspend and resume cycle, after which noatun under KDE will block indefinitely trying to write sound and trying sound from the command line (no X/KDE running) can get a little sound out sometimes, but it loops endlessly with warnings printing to the console about an IRQ problem. To get sound working again, I have to power the laptop off and back on. I just applied the patch against 2.5.0 (with the don't-eat-your-filesystem-on-shutdown patch as well: hey, it's 2.5, it's supposed to do that, isn't it?) and it made no noticeable difference. lspci produces the same output before and after APM suspend. It's a strange chipset, but it's using the ad1848 sound driver: lspci -s 01:00.1 -v -v 01:00.1 Multimedia audio controller: Neomagic Corporation [MagicMedia 256AV Audio] (rev 12) Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation MagicMedia 256AV Audio Device on Colorado Inspiron Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B+ Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR-
