Yeah. Apparently there's some weird magic crap that you have to do to make the internal speaker actually work. Far as I know, no one's decoded how to actually make it work in Linux, and no one seems overly interested in figuring out how to anyway (since the internal speaker isn't anything startling sound-quality-wise anyhow).quoted
regardless of whether a plug is connected. Is this a bug? (Don't get me wrong, I'm delighted that it works!)No, as I noted above, it's not a bug, it's just something we don't yet know how to control, and no one's felt it pressing to figure it out (and the lack of documentation on it would make it something of a task to figure out).
Well, I think I know how to control it. It's just that I don't have the HW to test on ;) I'll try to hack something soon. Ben. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
