What happened when you did ?

I have all of those snd* modules variously in
/lib/modules/6.0.12-artix1-1/kernel/sound/soc/codecs/
/lib/modules/6.0.12-artix1-1/kernel/sound/core/
/lib/modules/6.0.12-artix1-1/kernel/sound/soc/intel/boards

Maybe post dmesg both on boot and latest lines after trying to insert the modules.
Try modprobe --verbose

The dmesg from bootup and following the modprobe commands (as @gripped mentioned) may shed more light on the situation as it appears you did try the sound modules according to the posted list.

There are different sets of Intel sound drivers I think from some brief searching online, soc, sof, and the older hda might be used as a fallback. As you have a "sof" module on Artix and "soc" ones on Manjaro, perhaps you might try blacklisting the sof ones? Or to get sof working there are sof-tools and sof-firmware packages, the latter firmware one might be required to use that? My older audio is all hda here so I don't know much about those though.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Modprobed-db
modprobed-db would probably cut 5 hours or more from your build time if you intend to build several kernels with different config options. Also rebuilding an existing source tree if appropriate can use incremental compilation so can speed things. There are usually quite a few alternate prebuilt kernels in the AUR or other non standard repos to try, e.g. for a newer 6.2 kernel:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-mainline
And if you look at the top of the comments on that AUR description page it gives you a link to an unofficial repo for a prebuilt 6.2 binary, I've had no trouble using Arch kernel binaries sometimes but it depends on your personal dkms / driver situation as to whether they are compatible.

the package actually builds the docs, and it fails:

Code: [Select]

sources/linux-mainline/src/linux-mainline/Documentation/sphinx/load_config.py", line 6, in <module>
    from sphinx.util.pycompat import execfile_
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sphinx.util.pycompat'

From the unofficial binary from miffe (I tried to add key via gpg -v --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 313F5ABD )
then I ended up doing this (disabling signature verif) - but after all it is a temporary install

Code: [Select]

[miffe]
Server = https://arch.miffe.org/$arch/
SigLevel = Never
#LocalFileSigLevel = Optional
#RemoteFileSigLevel = Required

The bin install was ok, but in the end. after reboot.. no sound
this is the install log, there was several warnings -lines starting from WARNING

So i will try with Modprobed-db on manajoro side and try to apply on artix side

and also the option about soc, sof, and the older hda and the blacklisting you also mentionned: good idea

I went searching for what is required for audio modules.
May it be of use.
This is what I found:
Dell Inspiron 16 Plus (7620)
The table provides the ID of the audio device.

Code: [Select]

Audio 	8086:51c8

Devicehunt describes the unit.
Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio Controller
Linux hardware describes the required module.
Device 'Intel Alder Lake PCH-P High Definition Audio Controller'

Code: [Select]

Kernel Drivers

The device is supported by kernel versions 5.10 and newer according to the LKDDb:

Ver 	Source 	Config 	By ID 	By Class
5.10 - 6.1 	sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c 	CONFIG_SND CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL 	8086:51c8 	*
5.12 - 6.1 	sound/soc/sof/intel/pci-tgl.c 	CONFIG_SND CONFIG_SND_SOC CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_TGL CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_TOPLEVEL 	8086:51c8 	*

Off topic: It appears that a newer BIOS is available for the Inspiron 7620.
Version 1.9.0, 1.9.0 Release date 10 Jan. 2023 Download Type System BIOS
I have used a FreeDOS USB stick to flash Dell's before.

Reply #22 – 16 January 2023, 04:27:28

Thanks.

that match the kernel version used by manjaro (from the ISO I used from last july)
below:

Linux manjaro 5.15.53-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 7 16:56:55 UTC 2022 x86_64 GNU/Linux

while the corresponding kernel on july was

Linux artix-live 5.18.10-artix1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri, 08 Jul 2022 07:26:22 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

So it means the problem is elsewhere, not in the kernel version.

I should look how soc, sof, and hda are used - which one. I suppose I should blacklist soC.

Reply #26 – 16 January 2023, 18:05:13

for the record:

Sound actually works for default LTS kernel, so NO need to upgrade to last version of the Kernel provided the proper firmware is installed.

Current version:

Code: [Select]

uname -a
Linux  5.15.86-1-lts #1 SMP Tue, 10 Jan 2023 16:49:08 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I manually installed the firmware this way:

Code: [Select]

https://github.com/thesofproject/sof-bin/
sudo ./install.sh v2.2.4

but for the for the record Manjaro installed sof-firmware in extra (current version is Version 2.2.3-1) which should be easier.
(So you have to add extra to pacman.conf)

Edit: it is present in WORLD too!
