07:01 <u154ss> M2-Mini running a 6.6.x kernel (Debian/XFCE) here. Audio question - I have patched (macaudio.c) my M1-Mini as per instructions and sound works. Does the same procedure apply to the M2-Mini also? There is no "j473" entry in macaudio.c. Chadmed? TIA!

07:15 <u154ss> @all answering my own question here - found the appropriate string in macaudio.c (macaudio_j37x_j47x_cfg). All is well mea culpa for the disturbance. Back to sleep (for mw) :)

10:48 <chadmed> u154ss: why have you patched macaudio.c

10:48 <chadmed> you should not need to do any patching at all anymore

10:48 <chadmed> all machines are enabled

10:50 <j`ey> you do, -15 still has them all disabled

10:52 <mps> also I had to patch -15

10:54 <chadmed> ah right the lsp plugins patch

10:54 <chadmed> i was like "nnnno you dont i just upgraded" but i have those patches in /etc/portage/patches :p

10:55 <j`ey> :-)

10:55 <chadmed> we should probably just drop that

10:55 <chadmed> the fix has landed

10:56 <janneg> my bump for the gentoo overlay has the patches as well

10:57 <chadmed> yeah noticed that

10:57 <chadmed> has debian got the updated lsp-plugins in?

10:58 <chadmed> i think we can drop the patches if even debian has a "safe" lsp-plugins

10:58 <j`ey> https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1058672 but no idea where that goes

11:00 <chadmed> looks like its in sid at least?

11:00 <chadmed> idk how fixes like this get promoted to stable though

11:00 <chadmed> cy8aer: is the lsp-plugins fix in stable?

11:00 <janneg> it's in testing as well

11:01 <cy8aer> No only in testing.

11:01 <chadmed> hm okay

11:01 <janneg> stable is still on 1.2.5

11:01 <cy8aer> right

11:03 <cy8aer> The only way to get it into stable would be a maintained backports package.

11:03 <cy8aer> ... and someone who maintains it.

11:03 <chadmed> is anyone actually using any of the stable releases on this platform?

11:04 <cy8aer> Probably everyone who installs Debian from the Glanzmann-installer

11:05 <chadmed> *sigh* okay

11:07 <cy8aer> You need to install it with a live image or swap to testing after installation.

11:19 <u154ss> @chadmed, macaudio.c was indeed virginal. In my case (M2-Mini - Debian 6.6.x), latest lsp-plugins.. the appropriate switch(es) were set to "false" rather than "true.

11:19 <chadmed> right gotcha. didnt realise the kernel was not patched. all good

11:21 <u154ss> @chadmed running Debian Trixie. Bumped it from Glanzmann's original install. All well.

11:22 <chadmed> yeah its just if there are people who could feasibly be running the bad version, we cant really drop the patch and just enable speakers by default

11:22 <chadmed> i think by march-ish we should just do it anyway, ive always said we cant 100% save people from themselves

11:23 <u154ss> @chadmed I went throught the (audio) motions for the M1 Mini, which works. I checked the M2-Mini this morning and the rest is history..

11:24 <chadmed> glad its working now :)

11:24 <u154ss> @chadmed so am I.. Now about those external speakers... :)

11:32 <u154ss> @chadmed my version - lsp-plugins-lv2/testing,now 1.2.14-1 arm64

11:45 <chadmed> yeah thats a working one

11:45 <chadmed> but if people are on stable... theyll not have that

13:03 <Glanzmann> chadmed: I'll push the lib to my repository when I bump the linux kernel with sound enabled. So that people don't break their speakers.

13:08 <cy8aer> @Glanzmann: did not think about self hosting the library. This is a solution for debian stable of course

13:13 <chadmed> that sounds great! once thats done we should be able to drop the kernel patching

13:13 <chadmed> i doubt any other alt distros are behind debian

13:13 <chadmed> and if they are its likely because they are unmaintained and should be struck off the list on the wiki

13:13 <chadmed> just so we're clear that wasnt intended to be a shot at debian :p

18:41 <ahdeb[m]> Anyone wanna help me figure out what I messed up so I don't get a wp sink for my alsa device (which seems to work fine)? https://paste.debian.net/hidden/379fc78e/

22:18 <cy8aer> ahdeb[m]: are you sure that you have a kernel with audio patched in?

22:20 <cy8aer> The Dummy output looks like speakers/enablement-READ-COMMIT-MESSAGE is not patched in. https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/tree/speakers/enablement-READ-COMMIT-MESSAGE

22:21 <cy8aer> Otherwise you would have MacBook Pro J314 Speakers as sink. Probably https://github.com/AsahiLinux/asahi-audio/blob/main/README.md will help what is needed...

22:23 <cy8aer> If you are using Glanzmann's kernel: there is no speaker support in it. But it is on the way!
