How about sound?
Hi Daryl
This kernel is not for general use. This information is more to help developers avoid the
issues that I encountered when building a mainstream kernel to try performance tools on.
There are a number of things not working with this kernel configuration/build:
-usb3
-sound
-wireless
Right now the nv-uboot being used doesn't really allow for an initramfs, so a number
of things that should be modules are being compiled into the kernel so that the machine
boots up. I am hoping that in the near future there will be a nv-uboot that is closer to
what fedora expects (allows ext4 and initramfs).
