Hello folks --
Is there any write up for the most recent update to kernel 4.18.0-373 specifically with respect to sound setup or anything really? I had been using an "alpha" driver for my Intel sound that was appended to my boot line up until this latest. This not only did not work but caused continual hangs. Edited the 4.18.0-373 kernel line and things got somewhat better...but....this version is loading A LOT of modules and do I really need them, etc.
I am going through a lot of grief with this recent upgrade.
Thanks for any help...

I'm not sure how much freedom you have with your setup, but you could always try to use the elrepo-ml or elrepo-lt kernels. The elrepo-ml kernel follows the published version pretty closely, so for example right now I'm running 5.17.3 on my el8 boxes. The newer kernels solve a lot of hardware issues.

Thank you Joshua. If I can't get this resolved by the end of this week, I'll use your suggestion.

Hi Joshua, and list...
I got the non-workng sound driver for Intel HDA fixed with my kernel 4.18.0-373.
After removing the extra kernel flag i915_alpha from my command line
(see instructions when this module really was alpha --
https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3410491#understanding-kernel-command-l...),
I used the instructions given by
Syaifur Rizal https://ask.fedoraproject.org/u/oprizal
in this post...
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/audio-devices-not-listed/19344
I had a feeling I needed a modprobe.d entry but I didn't know what the syntax would be.
In any case, posting more info in case anyone needs it.

That's great Kay, thanks for the info! Question, if you don't mind my asking: how new is your hardware? The reason I ask is that certain newer Intel processors (11th generation mobile "Tiger Lake" i5 and i7) have a thermal issue where it's throttled down to 400MHz in certain heavy loads. There is a fix coming for this in 5.18 and I'm not sure if RedHat is going to backport it to earlier kernels. (There is a stopgap to this, if you replace the thermald package with a thermald version 2.4.9 or later the problem isn't as bad.)

I am getting ready to push a -383 kernel in a few minutes (if you still need an update)
Thanks Johnny.
And to Joshua -- my hardware is NOT REAL recent. This said, I WAS HAVING a lot of thermal issues in the past few months. After tweaking things in my BIOS, updating my BIOS and uninstalling a fair amount of services I wasn't using that were doing nothing but using up cycles, etc., I think I'm good now.

Right now...kernel 4.18.0-373 is absolutely useless. Boots then goes out to lunch. Period.
Given your reply about a new kernel -- and I see other updates as well.
Centos 8 was SUPPOSED to be out of service in Dec, 2021. I was not paying attention to this. UGH!
So...what can we expect in terms of ANY updates to the CentOS 8 line at this point?

Hi, not to mention the war again but you do have a alternative (stream) and the fabled kernel-ml which has been working fine in production servers according to my experiences (fleet of over 400 servers virtual and physical).
And assuming you are talking about CentOS 8.x there are several alternative distros out there to choose from if you do need a point release rather then rolling forward (as stream is-ish).
I might have missed something during the threads lifespan but what are the reasons for not using the kernel-ml packages?
Regards
