[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#728984: HDMI audio not working

[vladislav Ivanov]

Oh, my and the reply was in such a timely manner too, and it confirms my
original theory that I needed to rebuild my kernel/replace it with a newer
version because somebody screwed something up.

After I got rid of Debian and migrated to Gentoo because the pack of
incompetents known as the Debian TC decided that even discussing the
possibility of replacing sysvinit with systemd was a good idea.

I do not give a damn about this bug anymore, do whatever you want with it.

Frankly Debilian is dead to me as a distro.

Rule 1. Pillage, then burn.
Rule 6. If violence wasn't your last resort, you failed to resort to enough
of it.
Rule 9. Never turn your back on an enemy.
Rule 12. A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other
way, shoot it in the head.
Rule 16. Your name is in the mouth of others: be sure it has teeth.
Rule 29. The enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy. No more.No less.
Rule 30. A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further
you'll go.
Rule 31. Only cheaters prosper.
Rule 34. If you're leaving scorch marks, you need a bigger gun.
Rule 35. That which does not kill you has made a tactical error.
Rule 37. There is no "overkill". There is only "open fire" and "I need to
reload."
Rule?. Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Take his fish away and tell
him he's lucky just to be alive, and he'll figure out how to catch another
one for you to take tomorrow.
