No sound

Asked by FelixBlackCat

Hello. I had Sugar on a Stick working with a CTL 2Go PC with sound, but I lost that drive and had to make another Sugar on a Stick. However, I've now tried two different drives, I've tried reformatting the drives, etc., but I can't get the sound to work. This is VERY frustrating, since I KNOW the sound was working before, without my even having to do anything! The sound still works with the Jolicloud system on the 2Go's hard drive. I'm using a 2GB flash drive, and I've been using the Live USB Creator method in Windows Vista to create the Sugar on a Stick. What could've gone wrong? Please respond ASAP, as this has been driving me out of my skull all evening, and, together with other computer problems, I'm beginning to go a bit nuts with all of this. Thank you.

Are you sure you are using the same ISO?

Are you getting it off of your hard drive or downloading it fresh each time?

Yes, I'm using the same ISO each time. I originally downloaded it to an external hard drive, and then I copied it over to my computer's on-board HD, in the Live USB Creator folder, thinking it might be quicker that way. I still had it in that folder, so I used that one, but I might try it again today with my "archive" copy on my external drive, to see if that makes a difference.

I remember when I first tried this on the first drive, I first tried the download option from within the Creator program, and it either encountered an error, or it was just downloading rather slowly and the direct download of the ISO went more quickly, so I went the direct download route instead. It wasn't that long ago, so, unless there was a VERY recent update, it should still be current.

One more thing: I was trying an old thumb drive that had been sitting around for a while, which is why I thought that maybe something was goofy with the drive, so I tried reformatting it. I ended up formatting it in Linux, since the formatting wouldn't complete in Windows, at least with the FAT file system that had been on it before. (I decided to stay with that, as that seemed to me to be more likely to be compatible.) I may pick up a new 2GB drive to try it on today, to see if that makes a difference.

Thank you for your assistance.

Formatting that does not complete normally means the flash translation
layer (FTL) chip in the USB stick is struggling to complete the write
requests on the NAND flash behind it. This happens with age, use, and
temperature cycles.

Formatting in Linux may not do as much writing as formatting in Windows,
so by formatting in Linux you have probably avoided the problem at
formatting stage only. The problem may then appear during usage.

It is not impossible for a problem with the USB stick to cause the no
sound symptom you reported. But this is rare. There is a way to check.

If the operating system kernel has reported problems reading or writing
to the USB stick between the time the stick was booted and the time you
experienced no sound ... then that suggests a connection between the
symptoms.

You can look at the operating system kernel problem reports, if any, by
typing dmesg in the Terminal activity.

You might also test the USB stick more thoroughly. Linux has a
badblocks command that can do this destructively ... in that the data is
destroyed and has to be reloaded.

OK, I tried downloading a fresh copy of the ISO and installing it onto a brand new 2 GB thumb drive, but STILL no sound, and I've also discovered that I can't get it to boot AT ALL on an Everex Cloudbook (which I could do before with the first one, but without sound, which I think is the Cloudbook's fault.) I am getting REALLY frustrated now. This is driving me crazy.

I did a "dmesg" and these sections seem interesting:

...

render error detected, EIR: 0x00000010
page table error
  PGTBL_ER: 0x00000100
[drm:i915_handle_error] *ERROR* EIR stuck: 0x00000010, masking
render error detected, EIR: 0x00000010
page table error
  PGTBL_ER: 0x00000100

...

phy0 -> rt2500usb_init_eeprom: Error - Invalid RT chipset detected.
phy0 -> rt2x00lib_probe_dev: Error - Failed to allocate device.

...

There's also a bunch of entries lijke "name_count maxed, losing inode data: dev=00:05, inode=5062" 9with other inode values, too, such as 5077, 5743, 5745,5763, 5767 and 5776, with some being repeated several times.

Another section:

...

Microcode Update driver: v2.00 removed.
r8169: eth0: link down

...

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): WLAN0: link is not ready
[drm:drm_mode_rmfb] *ERROR* tried to remove a fb that we didn't own

...

I can't make any sense of that, but, if you can, I'd greatly appreciate the help. This is REALLY aggravating me at this point! I may see if I can install it using the Linux method, and see if that makes a difference. Yeesh, what a pain...

OK, this is interesting: Sound works on an Eee PC! (original model) So, i don't know why it won't work on the other machines, especially the CTL 2Go, which is what I'd be using it on most of the time. Anyway, since it works on the Eee, I think I'll keep that drive as it is for now until I hear back from you, hopefully with suggestions on how to get it working on the CTL 2Go again (and, hopefully, on the Cloudbook, too -- I've been trying out all sorts of Linux distros on that thing trying to find something that'll make it useful, since the gOS that came with it wasn't very good. Xubuntu seems to work the best out of what I've tried so far.)

I may try installing SoaS with my CTL 2Go under Jolicloud (based on Ubuntu Netbook Remix, I think) on the other (older) drive that I was using last night. Judging from the Sugar Labs wiki, it looks like I can use UNetBootin, so I installed that on my Jolicloud system using the package manager and copied the ISO to my home folder on that system, so we'll see how that works out...

G'day,

The "losing inode data" entries are from the auditing subsystem, and do
not mean that the operating system kernel is unable to read some of the
data on the ISO.

The drm:i915 errors are potentially normal, and are related to the
graphics device. They shouldn't be relevant to a sound problem.

The ability of sound to work depends on the operating system kernel
discovering the sound device on the computer and having a driver for it
built in. You can test for that by trying a matching Fedora Live-CD.

I agree you seem to have gathered test results that conflict, and it is
hard to see a pattern.

I agree that installing a Linux to an internal hard drive and then
bringing it up to date may give you an entirely different outcome ...
though whether it will fix the sound or not is anybody's guess.

We could work through the sound issue with you, but it would take
several days of back and forth. If you want to get started on that,
capture "dmesg" and "lspci" command outputs and mail them to me at
<email address hidden>, then reply here as well to connect the mails for me.

(I'm on a few hundred mail a day, I don't always make connections well).

G'day,

I'm not familiar with that hardware (CTL 2Go, Cloudbook, Jolicloud), but
the failure of sound on install is not exactly an unusual problem across
all Linux distributions. Often it is fixed in an update. That doesn't
help a system like SoaS that is either not updated or updated per
release.

The reason for this is that the sound hardware tends to vary
considerably, and requires programming change in the drivers to get
right. Even devices which identify with the same PCI ID may end up
being differently wired on the main board.

OK, this is a little embarrassing. I finally noticed the speaker icon when the frame came up as the mouse pointer neared one of the corners, and I noticed it was greyed out. I tried playing with the volume & mute settings, and, lo & behold, the sound is now working! Still, I'm puzzled over why that wasn't necessary when I booted it up on an Eee, and it wasn't necessary with my first SoaS on the CTL 2Go. Curious about whether the settings would stick, I booted it up again on the CTL 2Go, and the settings do seem to stick, as the sound works w/o my having to go back again to the speaker icon on the frame. I'm still unable to boot it at all on the Cloudbook, which I still find a bit odd. I tried UNetBootin with the other drive, but that didn't seem to work, as it didn't boot up properly, so I may try the Windows method on that drive again to see if that will boot on the Cloudbook, since when I tried to boot the one I made today on my brand new drive by accessing the boot priority menu, it showed as a "USB HDD," and it proceeding to boot from the internal HDD instead.

I did capture the dmesg & lspci outputs, so I'll just go ahead and paste that here, anyway, and maybe you can glean something from it. I'll go ahead and mark this as "solved," but if you have anything to pass along, I'd still appreciate it. thanks for your assistance! :-)

G'day,

The sound device has a mixer, which has volume controls. Sugar exposes
at least one of these volume controls on the Frame.

The default value after initial installation depends on the current
settings in the sound device itself or the kernel driver for the device.
Therefore the result may depend on what was running immediately prior to
the reboot, or random values stored in volatile memory of the device, or
even the programming of the device driver in the kernel.

The value is persistent because it is stored by the alsactl program
during shutdown and read back during startup. It's just the first time
it boots that the value may not be predictable.

For your interest, the relevant parts of dmesg and lspci that related to
the sound device were:

OK, I tried it with the older drive, and the speaker icon was greyed out, but I just had to make the proper adjustment, and the sound was fine. What's more, that one boots on the Cloudbook, and it actually does play sound on the Cloudbook, but very faintly, and it doesn't send any sound through the headphone jack at all. That's normal for the Cloudbook from my experience of trying out different Linux distros. on it.

I've heard of that happening. It is because the driver needs to know
exactly how the headphone jack is wired to the chip, and cannot easily
discover this automatically.

Take a look, for interest, at
http://quozl.linux.org.au/2008-12-19-hp-present/
where I fixed this for a friend by patching their kernel.
