Hi. Two things:
I thought the Audio Engine branch had finished their work a few days ago, so that HD audio should now work. Does this not apply when I use fglrx with Xvba? So I have to choose either HD video or HD audio but can't have both?
The other thing: I investigated the long resume time on a fresh Ubuntu install (see post 774) by disabling/unloading LAN and Audio (was impossible to unload USB but I disabled it in BIOS), that didn't help. Only remaining driver to try to unload is radeon, I managed to replace it with vesa but then resume doesn't work at all. With my limited knowledge of Linux this indicates the issue is due to the graphics driver (what else?). And since fast resume time is a requirement for a good HTPC I thought this might be the proper place to mention this after all. I also started an Ubuntu thread but got nowhere there so far. And the issue is the same with an XBMC session. And resume time is even longer with XBMC-Xvba + fglrx + Linux Mint. Can anyone here with Fusion board confirm the long resume time?
