Back to the Macbook again:

Sound is now broken on Garuda now as well. I am wondering, why the kernel team has decided to ban this relatively widespread chip, while I guess I can just google this.

Its a bummer, especially considering that systems, who were not involved in the installation procedure, will likely not have any sound on portable systems.

I am using a SSD in an USB enclosure, to jump between different devices with my main OS.
Having drivers outside of the kernel means I can always run into systems, who might just lack certain drivers.

Anyways; https://paste.ee/p/Q3bd5

What else can I test?

    shalokshalom Sound is now broken on Garuda now as well

    Please test that install, and add sof-firmware (if that is what is called in Garuda too).

      shalokshalom it reveals something like a little bit of a virtual keyboard.

      Make sure to read the notes (first post) about known issues.

      The installer shows no "next" item at this point:

      Of course, no password is accepted until verified. Next will only activate once the second password field is filled out & matching.

        Ah, now i see this password input field right next to it.

        The whole page looks pale and its almost invisible, since it looks very much as if this line is just the continuation of the first password input line.

        I will test Garuda with whatever is needed for that soundchip.

        Thanks

        Installing sof-firmware on Arch did not solve the issue. Interestingly, it changed the "mute" symbol in the systray to an actual, normal speaker symbol.

        But clicking it, reveals this and there is still no sound:

        So it lies somewhere else in the stack, or sof-firmware just needs to be configured.

        First full ISO is uploaded. There is a move to linux 5.19.12, no issue found with that kernel here, but there are reports if some intel systems failing with this kernel (i915), so if you have such a system, please check if Live boots.

        Some very old network firmwares are no longer included in this ISO, should not effect anyone.
        KDE Telepathy packages are no longer included on a full ISO, they are unmaintained and full of bugs, Neochat is included instead (Matrix client).

          When I switch to new kernel (5.19.12) wlan isn't auto connected restored after suspend to ram.

          inxi -N
Network:
  Device-1: Intel Cannon Lake PCH CNVi WiFi driver: iwlwifi
  Device-2: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet
    driver: r8169

          Testing of the current ISO can stop, there were reports a few days already that a major regression occurred with linux 5.19.12, that is now fixed/reverted, see:
          https://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg4537960.html
          New ISO with linux 5.19.13 will be later today or early tomorrow.

          Second full ISO is up, this should be the final ISO for the October release.
          This means that Plasma 5.26RC will be used, not common to go with an RC, but tomorrow 5.26 final will be tagged, not many changes with what is in the RC for KaOS, needed patches have been applied.
          Changes from the first full ISO from 3 days ago:

          • Linux 5.19.13 with the intel i915 fixes
          • poppler 22.10.0 + plus all the needed rebuilds
          • stacer is patched to open with systemd services tab & use a light theme (so it fits KaOS)
          • Calamares no longer shows zfs as an option for automated partitioning with BIOS systems
          • systemd 251.5
          • zfs 2.1.6
          • pacman patched for bash 5.2 changes (so makepkg will work)

          It really still was there since I hadn't gotten around redoing the slideshow, and telepathy was a very visible part of the old slides.
