fyi, the patch for the digital mic was upstreamed and at least on Fedora 38 (prerelease) with kernel 6.2.0-0.rc4 it works out of the box. i assume this will be the same for any system running a 6.2 kernel. enjoy

surveilyRight, so I will now figure it out how to do the same on Ubuntu/Debian. Thanks! i mostly based the fedora stuff on this article https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/blog/2021/05/05/quick-hack-patching-kernel-module-using-dkms/ which was written for ubuntu :)

surveilyI just need a general idea of what needs to be done. The exact steps I can probably Google. Unless you want to make me a gift for Christmas ;) in general you want to download your kernel sources, and rebuild module snd_soc_acp6x_mach with the above patch. i assume you do not compile your own kernel, but use the one shipped with your distro. you should be on a fairly recent kernel, and the above module should already be loaded (verify by running command 'lsmod | grep acp6x'), so the only thing we need to do is replace it :) depending on your distribution this might be tricky. if you build a module from vanilla source code, even if the version matches your kernel, it will fail loading as the signing will be slightly different from the kernel shipped with your OS. on fedora, the easiest way to build out of tree modules, or patch and replace in tree ones, i find is using dkms. [CODE]sudo dnf install dkms[/CODE] you also need your kernel-devel or whatever equivalent development pa

surveilyAny chance of you letting me know how to apply this? i'll see if i can provide a dkms script and instructions this week. depending on your distro, manual patching of modules and swapping them in can be a burden.

surveilyI've installed the supposedly 6.0-compatible nvidia-driver from their PPA - no luck. It stopped working after 2nd reboot. Unfortunately the BT doesn't work either. I must have booted to windows first so it got turned on before switching to Ubuntu 22.04.1. check your dmesg output and see if you have an error on the usb port not showing any devices. this occasionally happens to me, and as unpredictable as it comes, it disappears again and works. i suspect it has something to do with the powermanagement on the usb hub, but i havent been able to put my finger on it.

surveilyNo nvidia-driver support tho fedora (38/rawhide) has the required patch via the rpm fusion repo's since a couple of weeks. if not, manual installation of the akmod driver and appying the patch described here: http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=3053. but you kinda need to know what you're doing. you cant deploy it unless you are in runlevel 3 etc... if you dont mind some messing about it's fine. but i havent seen many reasons to leave your stable distro and rush to 6.0 and a beta or experimental branch (the performance increases on mesa and amd kernel code perhaps). i'm hoping the changes coming to rembrandt in Sound Open Firmware somehow give the sound support a boost, but i'm not expecting this to be merged until 6.1.

hitsecretBigFootFeet479DId it work with you? I tried only last version of that fix, unfortunately it did not work i doubt it will, as SOF does not have support for AMD yellow carp/rembrandt yet in the mainline. it seems to be on the roadmap, but i dont expect so see it before kernel 6.x.x you can actually see in the journal no sof firmware is loaded. the 'non sof' audio coprocessor driver for AMD YC is loaded instead (acp6x). but how this all connects to the codec is a mystery to me. just for funs, i tried out kernel 6rc1 as it contains a huge bunch of updates to acp6x, but nothing changed. anyway, it seems both this driver and the sof one are still under active development. so hope it will sort itself out in upcoming kernels :) fingers crossed

small update on the microphone stuff, i have had no luck with the built in mic, but i did manage to get the mic running on earphones with jack. they seem to be on pin 0x19, but i had to disable the jack detect setting. i used the 'hdajackretask' tool to remap the pin. it saves a file to /lib/firmware and applies the patch via module option (if you see multiple values, that is because the blade has multiple devices using snd_hda_intel, the 3rd one is the realtek, the first 2 in my case are HDMI. with jack detection enabled, it doesnt work, the pin is never discovered as connected. with it disabled, you will see the input device always, even when unplugged. going to keep messing about :) $ cat /lib/firmware/hda-jack-retask.fw [codec] 0x10ec0897 0x1a58201c 0 [pincfg] 0x11 0x40000000 0x12 0x40000000 0x14 0x90170110 0x15 0x411111f0 0x16 0x411111f0 0x17 0x411111f0 0x18 0x411111f0 0x19 0x03a11130 0x1a 0x411111f0 0x1b 0x03211020 0x1c 0x411111f0 0x1d 0x4026892d 0x1e 0x411111f0 0x1f 0x411111

bluetooth fix through dkms is here: https://github.com/wimvanboven/razer-blade-14-2022-btusb NB: before i updated the EC firmware, the bt device sometimes failed to be enabled at boot. problem hasn't reoccurred after EC firmware update, so best to do this upfront as it needs windows. i've been fighting the mic for a few days now. but i guess something is messed up with the alc897 codec config and the bios probably does not report the pin config properly. messing with the pins through hdajackretask utility did not yet lead to success. i think the built in mic is on pin 0x18, but when i toggle it and unmute it in alsamixer, no sound is recorded.

Has anyone tried to install linux on their Razer Blade 14?

on the 2022 model both work with some tinkering, but i suggest to update the EC firmware on windows first which seems to fix an usb stability issue (in my case my btusb device was sometimes not detected, this issue is gone after EC update). for wifi you need a modified firmware, i have the file on my github: https://github.com/wimvanboven/razer-blade-14-2022-ath11k/tree/master/WCN6855/hw2.0 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215946 for btusb you need to modify the module, i have a patch on my github: https://github.com/wimvanboven/razer-blade-14-2022-btusb what isnt working for me is the built in mic, or the mic through the headphone jack. i assume the alc897 codec needs specific pin configurations, but have not found a way how to work out what they should look like.
