Hi guys, I recently got one of the new 13" macbookpro, model number is macbookpro 5,5 There's some problem with this new hardware and I thought this is the best place to look for advise. #audio audio is simply not working. The audio card is detected but unusable. Upgrading alsa doesn't work - kernel 2.6.30 doesn't help either. There's a thread about it on ubuntu forums (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1188849 ) #suspend/resume/restart Only shutdown works. Everything else hangs. this happens when booting directly from the apple loader (hold down option key at start) or rEFIt. #video drivers the nvidia 170* works quite fine. the 180 doesn't work. The 185 works great. #backlights nvidia_bl_dkms from the mawictel repository fixes the keys and everything ambient also works from gnome-power-manager although some values should be customized #wifi, SD card, USB, CD, external vga all works. All this tried with ubuntu 9.04 (default kernel as well as latest 2.6.30) and 9.10 If you have suggestions or if you are willing to help out I am available for any test you may require. Thanks! gg |

When looking at patch_realtek.c I see line 7466 macbook 5,1 which gets routed to the ALC885_MB5; spec with your model I see: Codec: Generic 1013 ID 4206 (what or where might this belong to? i.g. *.c file?)

I am afraid that generic ID is too generic yet and need some serious work to be recognized. Something's moving, though http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7570539&postcount=35 On Sun, Jun 28, 2009 at 8:58 PM, Justin P.
