linux 下 驱动 Acer 笔记本 Realtek ALC268 声卡

我这个笔记本是Acer的, 声卡为nvidia mcp67集成, 解码器为realtek alc268
刚装上ubuntu 7.04后声卡能够识别, 有nvidia unknown device 和alc268字样, 但是不能发声。
起初认为是声卡没有识别好, 但是装了最新的alsa1.0.15rc1和ossv4都没效果, 了解了update-pciid才知道其实已经识别了声卡, 而问题出现在 realtek alc268上。

realtek官网上也有个驱动, 下了一看,里面原来也是alsa1.0.14, 只是驱动版本号比较特别。装上后仍不起作用。


在网上搜了很多文章, 其中这个比较好
Bug #116326 in linux-source-2.6.22 (Ubuntu): “No audio INTEL HD audio - Realtek ALC268 codec - Toshiba A205-S4577”

看来这个问题主要出在新型的笔记本上。 另外我还得知了alsa1.0.14对alc268支持的不是很好。上面那个链接里, 中间有几个人帖上了for realtek的alsa补丁, 看样子能起作用。 他们说1.0.14上支持的声卡列表里没有alc268。还有一点, 提出这个问题的人是toshiba的笔记本, 下面帖子中多次提到了model=toshiba这个参数, 于是我自然想到有没有for acer的。

于是我把目光放在了1.0.15rc1上, 看changlog里赫然有个alc268, 而其中专门多了一个acer笔记本的model。 我顿时眼前一亮。 有戏!

再看一下alsa的安装说明, 应该在snd_hda_intel模块加载时加上model=xxx 的参数。 那我这情况自然是在/etc/modprobe.d/options里加一句options snd_hda_intel model=acer

然后重启(可能仅重加载snd-hda-intel也可), 听到了熟悉的ubuntu启动声音。 啊哈哈哈!!!

Determine Perspective Lines With Off-page Vanishing Point

In perspective drawing, a vanishing point represents a group of parallel lines, in other words, a direction. For any point on the paper, if we want a line towards the same direction (in the 3d space), we simply draw a line through it and the vanishing point. But sometimes the vanishing point is too far away, such that it is outside the paper/canvas. In this example, we have a point P and two perspective lines L1 and L2. The vanishing point VP is naturally the intersection of L1 and L2. The task is to draw a line through P and VP, without having VP on the paper. I am aware of a few traditional solutions: 1. Use extra pieces of paper such that we can extend L1 and L2 until we see VP. 2. Draw everything in a smaller scale, such that we can see both P and VP on the paper. Draw the line and scale everything back. 3. Draw a perspective grid using the Brewer Method. #1 and #2 might be quite practical. #3 may not guarantee a solution, unless we can measure distances/p...

Chasing an IO Phantom

My home server has been weird since months ago, it just becomes unresponsive occassionally. It is annoying but it happens only rarely, so normally I'd just wait or reboot it. But weeks ago I decided to get to the bottom of it. What's Wrong My system set up is: Root: SSD, LUKS + LVM + Ext4 Data: HDD, LUKS + ZFS 16GB RAM + 1GB swap Rootless dockerd The system may become unresponsive, when the IO on HDD  is persistantly high for a while. Also: Often kswapd0 has high CPU High IO on root fs (SSD) From dockerd and some containers RAM usage is high, swap usage is low It is very strange that IO on HDD can affect SSD. Note that when this happens, even stopping the IO on HDD does not always help. Usually restarting dockerd does not help, but rebooting helps. Investigation: Swap An obvious potential root cause is the swap. High CPU on kswapd0 usually means the free memory is low and the kernel is busy exchanging data between disk and swap. However, I tried the following steps, none of the...

Fix Google Security Code

Google Security Code (http://g.co/sc) is one type of 2-step verification. This is particularly useful when security keys and passkeys are not available. I have been using it in my LXC containers, until today I found out that it stopped working. It just kept saying "The code is invalid". It is easy to rule out some factors: The code works on other browsers on my laptop. The code works on other devices that are directly connected to the router. So it appears that Google also checks IP addresses besides the security code. Recently I have IPv6 enabled, so most devices that are directly connected to the router have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. But  I only enabled IPv4 for my LXC containers. So I guess when a code is generated by device A and used by device B, Google should be able to check that device A and device B are closely located. But in my case, IPv6 address appears on device A but not on device B, which may look suspicious. To fix the problem, I just needed to disable IPv...
