vaio-f11-linux's Issues

Vaio S series

Hello Boys, 
I have the sony vaio S series and I try the solution for the configuration 
hardware. Do you are interested to the solution for working with this hardware 
or this project it's only for F series?


Yours sincerely
Francesco Di Battista

AC adaptor not recognized when using Kubuntu 10.10 and KDE 4.6

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Plug-in or remove the AC adaptor and see if power manager reacts to it. It 
won't.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Power manager should be informed that ac adaptor has been (un-) plugged.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Kubuntu 10.10 with KDE 4.6

Please provide any additional information below.

I solved the problem by creating an acpi script, that listens for battery 
events (not ac), and then executes:

dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.UPower \
/org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/line_power_AC \
org.freedesktop.UPower.Device.Refresh

No ACPI on SATA

On boot, ACPI on SATA fails with:

ACPI _SDD failed (AE 0x5)

And blocks for 10 seconds. Disabling ACPI on SATA fixes the 10 second block, 
but still leaves ACPI on SATA disabled.

VPCF126FM Accelerometer Questions

I have assumed that my HDD was protected by an accelerometer on my laptop.  I 
recently viewed the FireFox 4.0 demos ( http://demos.mozilla.org ) and saw that 
they had support for detecting device positioning (ie; it knows when you tilt 
your laptop), but that it was failing to detect movement.

I have since been trying to determine the following:
-Does my device actually have a method of detecting movement?
--Is it an accelerometer that can be accessed, or is it built into the HDD?
--If it's an accelerometer, how can I ensure it's being used to protect my HDD 
and how can I access the device within my system?

I tried installing HDAPS, but it tells me it is unable to find a device.  The 
HDAPS package states it's for IBM/Apple machines, though.

Is there anything else I can do?

High Pitched Sound from Display Lamp

When starting ubuntu on battery power I hear high pitch noise going
somewhere from under keyboard. I think it is the same kind of noise that
several users reported to hear in Win7.
The issue can be easily triggered when even changing brightness of screen
to anything else than maximum brightness (in battery or power supply mode)
And when changing display brightness back to maximum, the high pitch noise
is gone.


There was some crazy solution in Win7 to change some settings for microphone.
I saw this issue on official ubuntu kernel and I didn't applied yet the
solution to get microphone working

I did apply the changes required to get brightness up&down working as
described in the wiki

My Vaio version: VPCF11Z1E
Ubuntu 10.4 (x86_64)
kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic
Nvidia driver version: 195.36.15
alsa-base: 1.0.22.1+dfsg-0ubuntu3

No sound in Ubuntu 9.10 64-bits

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. There is just no sound
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected to hear something, but the computer is completely mute. (By the
way, I checked everything I could in sound preferences)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu 9.10 (64-bits). My vaio is the VPCF111FX.

Please provide any additional information below.
There is no sound in videos, music, system sounds. It`s the more silent
notebook I ever had. I`m not really sure but I think that I could hear
something with Ubuntu 9.10 32-bits.

Using external monitor, lid closure disable should disable laptop screen.

This is not really a serious problem, but I would really like it if when I'm 
using my external monitor and I close the lid of the laptop, if the internal 
LCD screen would automatically disable so I wouldn't need to worry about 
windows or my cursor moving to the closed screen. It works that way in W7.  



What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using VPCF11JFX with Kernel 2.6.35 on ubuntu 10.10

Please provide any additional information below.
I tried changing the power settings to have the laptop screen go blank upon lid 
closure, but it still counts as an active screen. It seems much of the display 
detection is not very robust, as unplugging the HDMI cable does not 
automatically disable the external monitor registering as an active screen 
either. 

I'm a pretty big linux noob, so there's probably something really dumb I'm not 
doing... Sorry....

WiFi not working at first installation (European version)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. When You first install Ubuntu (I suspect also other distros)

2. This applies in EU version with the Intel 6200 card, don't know about US
ones (with atheros)

Solution is quite simple, You just have to get a newer kernel 2.6.32

Upgrading to Lucid Lynx 10.10 with all the outstanding issues!

Thanks for a brill site. I would not be using my VPCF11Z1E as much as I do now 
if I could not overcome the issues resolved here. 

I am currently on 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx. I have resolved the following 
issues with the help of this site:

1) NVIDIA Issues - Setting up X11 with NVIDIA's driver for the Vaio's new 
display using an EDID file
2) Audio drivers - No sound in Ubuntu Alsa Drivers
3) Back Light fix

What I would like is a status of 'Issues' for 10.10. I would like to upgrade 
but I have stable box at present. What issues were resolved by 10.10. Will I 
still need ALL of the patches! Do they still work.

Is there a help page for this?

I am still disappointed to have to have to patch. Has the new version of Ubuntu 
fixed any issues. 

I thought Canonical did hardware testing! Do these issues ever get resolved! 

I know it is the fault of Sony for using proprietary hardware but it has been 
long time now.

Am I expecting too much?

Ubuntu 10.10 Release Candidate

If, by chance, any user comes here before they choose to upgrade their laptop, 
I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT upgrading. I typically download the newest version 
of Ubuntu at about the third Alpha release, so I'm used to the errors and bugs 
that come along with it. 10.10 has by far given me the most trouble I think 
I've ever had.

It messed up my display, and will not even load it or recognize that there is 
an error. The previous work-around that I think just about everyone was using 
will NOT fix this. I've tried. Just to be able to properly boot into Ubuntu 
using x I had to boot into the safe mode and uninstall the Nvidia drivers.

Also, closing the laptop lid will no longer send you computer into standby, it 
instead chooses to turn it off completely.

I'm not trying to run here and complain, I'm aware that these will more than 
likely be fixed soon, I'm just trying to warn others of the potential dangers 
of updating!

[Info] Ubuntu 11.04 on Sony Vaio F

Not an issue, just an information topic to everyone interested.

Does Ubuntu 11.04 beta work well on our Sony Vaio laptops? Even via upgrade or 
scratch installation?

Anything to configure manually, like X or sound or whatever else?

Thanks in advance to beta pioneers ;-)

  • Merged into: #37

No Support for Ambient Light Sensor

There is no available interface to access data from the ambient light sensor 
(that little dot next to the numlock LED). Additionally, there is no way to 
make it control the screen brightness. 

Original issue reported on code.google.com by Jason.Donenfeld on 10 Feb 2010 at 10:10

  • Merged into: #6

No Microphone Support

The sound card is a Realtek ALC275. It is currently bound to the alc269 
settings in the realtek codec, which suffices for output, but fails to get 
the pin configuration correct for any any input. The current "capture" 
switch gives noise input from an unknown source. Toggling some mute switches 
in [http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/HDA_Analyzer HDA Analyzer] 
enables support for the line input, but the built-in digital microphone 
cannot be enabled by any such tinkering.

Fingerprint reader not working (Reader is supported but custom sony firmware prevents it working)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. The fingerprint reader is not recognized by fprint


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Nothing

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu 10.04

Please provide any additional information below.

UPEK confirms that even though Sony laptops include a 0483:2016 scanner (which 
would otherwise be supported by upekts), the Sony version has a custom firmware 
designed to prevent any non-Sony software interacting with the device. 
Unfortunately they are successful and fprint, ThinkFinger and UPEK's own Linux 
drivers do not work with the fingerprint scanners in Sony laptops.

GN-BX297XP

BUT what I thought is that (correct me if im wrong) the original UPEK firmware 
could be extracter from an oiginal 0483:2016 scanner, and then it could be 
loaded into the 0483:2016 with the sony firmware

Wireless Card Disconnects

I have the Atheros AR9287 in my Vaio F series (VPC-F1190X). Every once in a

happened on multiple routers. I use ath9k and wpa_supplicant. Does anyone 
else have this problem?

Adding second monitor entry in xorg.conf enables external HDMI devices

There is no sound over HDMI although regular analog laptop sound output works 
ok.

I'm not sure if the problem is on alsa or nvidia side, "aplayer -L" doesn't 
list any NVidia sound deviced, only ALC275's.

No support for dual screen display

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. have support for internal monitor (EDID trick)
2. try to connect a 2nd monitor (example: ACER V223HQ, 1920x1080)
3. launch NVIDIA X Server Settings tool

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to see the two monitors, but I don't see the 2nd monitor.
Doing some tricks in Xorg.conf does not provide any help. I managed to have
the display on one monitor, but not the two at the same time.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

The 195.blahblah driver is gone, so I installed the 190.53, on Ubuntu9.10
amd64 Linux.

mplayer will not play .avi

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. attempt to open a .avi file
2. mplayer will automatically search for plugins
3. none will be found; only audio will play

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
audio and video should play, instead only audio plays

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
newest version of mplayer (totem is also installed) Ubuntu 10.04 x64

Please provide any additional information below.
I cannot find any information to get these to work and it's driving me
crazy. I've been running Ubuntu for years and have set it up on many
machines and have always been able to get support for .avi files no
problem! My desktop computer is compatible with them. When mplayer searches
for the plugins it simply returns: No packages with the requested plugins
found.

I have done:
w64codecs
mencoder
medibuntu repositories
gstreamer plugins
updated mplayer
gotten the ubuntu restricted drivers
looked ALL over the Internet and tried just about any fix I could find. I
even installed the DivX SDK because some site said that might get it to work.

** It is worth noting that I did install VLC and the videos will play
correctly with that, although I personally prefer mplayer by far over VLC,
as well as want to figure out why something simple won't work.


***I'm also aware this isn't so much a Vaio issue, although, as previously
stated, I've tried just about everything else I could possibly find on the
Internet and have used Ubuntu for a long time and still cannot find a
solution. Any help is welcome!

Intel TurboBoost is not working

Using 2.6.33 kernel 
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_avaliable_frequencies show 
only normal one (ie 1.6Ghz for Corei7 720QM), there is no turbo (1.6Ghz-
2.8Ghz) frequencies there.

NVidia 260 drivers unusable (crashing Xorg)

Probably this should be organized as a separate issue...

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install NVidia drivers version 260.xx (either via ppa or manually).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Xorg doesn't load (crashes).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
VPCF1190, Ubuntu 10.04 / 10.10, kernels 2.6.32 / 2.6.35.

Please provide any additional information below.

Display Backlight

The screen will not dim -- the backlight currently has no interface, not 
from sony-laptop nor from acpi.

NVIDIA Screen Blanking and White Screen

The NVIDIA driver does not restore the display when switching to console, 
and sometimes crashes and fades to white. When using the 195.xx series of 
drivers, the entire display locks up randomly (the solution is to use 
190.xx).

- Screen restoration when going back to console
- White screen of death
- Random crashes with 195.xx series

My laptop, a Vaio VPCF11J1E, has a PM55 motherboard and when I try to configure 
the hardware sensors, the system don't find any sensor and I think that this 
issue influence the temperature reached by the hardware.
Whith Windows there are not problems for the sensors, 1 for each processor, 1 
for the Hd and 1 for the Gpu.
I found this but it seems to be dead:

Using external monitor, lid closure disable should disable laptop screen.

This is not really a serious problem, but I would really like it if when I'm 
using my external monitor and I close the lid of the laptop, if the internal 
LCD screen would automatically disable so I wouldn't need to worry about 
windows or my cursor moving to the closed screen. It works that way in W7.  



What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using VPCF11JFX with Kernel 2.6.35 on ubuntu 10.10

Please provide any additional information below.
I tried changing the power settings to have the laptop screen go blank upon lid 
closure, but it still counts as an active screen. It seems much of the display 
detection is not very robust, as unplugging the HDMI cable does not 
automatically disable the external monitor registering as an active screen 
either. 

I'm a pretty big linux noob, so there's probably something really dumb I'm not 
doing... Sorry....

Process migration got broken after hibernate/sleep

On VPCF1 core i7 notebook after sleep-resume cycle process migration seems to 
be broken (kernel try to execute all processes on 1-2 CPU instead of spread 
them on all CPU). For more details please see:

Using display off button results in wierd display issues

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.I have the latest Nvidia driver installed (195.36.24). I am sure that 
this issue only started after the installation of that driver.
2.I lock my laptop (Ctrl-Alt-L) then press the display off button. 
3.Then try and log in again, e.g. move mouse to get the screensaver 
password dialog.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect to be able to see the screen properly. 

Instead when trying to log back in the display is very dull, with one 
side slightly brighter. I can log in (i.e. no freeze), but the display 
doesn't go back to the set brightness. Even on the desktop it's mostly 
dull with one side slightly brigher. 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I have a VPCF117HG. 
Using Lucid Lynx, with latest Nvidia driver installed. 


Please provide any additional information below.
I have tried this with desktop effects turned on and off. The result is 
the same.
