Title: Audio doesn't work (crashes)
Post by: glu on January 07, 2025, 05:43:16 am

Hi, I'm using voidz with 4.19.0_1 kernel - the issue I am having is that as soon as I play something (aplay or mpg123) the system crashes. It is the same error message as described in https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/d803b938-3212-6485-8786-43dff6e46e6a@zonque.org/T/

Did anyone else manage to get audio working on voidz with above kernel, or are there alternative (newer? older?) kernels that work?

I am not sure the about the 4.19.0_1 kernel, but audio worked fine in 4.14.x I believe.

You can try the latest kernel 5.4.221_1:

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/commit/85ecb614101fe05b8141c0e4975be2d58e13642d
https://github.com/greguu/voidz-packages/releases/download/build-008/zaurus-5.4.221_1.tar.gz

You could also try the test rootfs with Netsurf, I believe it uses the 5.0.0 kernel, but there is no package feed for this rootfs.
