kernel 3.9 and sound

[Fintan]

I installed the kernel 3.9 from here:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

After rebooting sound is gone.
I also noticed that the image-extras package was not there anymore.

any ideas?

How - Logs - SoundTroubleshooting - At here

How and what did you install ?
What was the output ?
What the logs are telling ? dmesg ?

image-extras ?

With the 3.8.0-19 there are available:
linux-headers
linux-image-extra
linux-image

With the 3.9 there are available
linux-headers
linux-image

Have you tried the sound troubleshooting ?

At here (headers needed for the dkms->fglrx):

Rebooting...

The sound seems to work.

Version is:

Fglrx is working:

i lose HDMI output if im using the 3.8.0-18 and 3.8.0.19 kernels. my machine reverts to onboard sound ports. it seams like i lose sound , i wonder could you be having a similar issue where you lose only hdmi sound

I think the 3.9 kernels are a little wonky. When I tried the one dated 29 April, I get this error upon boot:

Failed to alloc lowmem for boot params

Then I tried the one under "current" (which was yesterday, 30 April). It boots, but the nVidia drivers won't compile. The make.log gripes:

FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module nvidia.ko uses GPL-only symbol 'system_wq'

This is with 319.12 from Xorg-Edgers. Oddly, the driver compiles fine under the previous 3.9 kernel, and also under 3.8 Ubuntu and 3.8 Liquorix.

HI guys. I just dowloaded the packages from here:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

and installed with gdebi.
This has always worked until now.

I'll have to reboot to 3.9 and get back here later.

Edit: rebooted to 3.9

uname -a

dmesg is in the attch.

I'll have a look at all those links later today and get back to you. Thankx

Don't have x-edgers installed (Yet)

To me it seems that the system is detecting the audio right:

[ 12.247530] input: HDA Intel PCH HDMI/DP,pcm=3 as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input8

There are audio problems with the 3.9 kernel: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2122068 -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...4#post12633424
