Replaced my XPS 9700 motherboard with one from a 9710. Everything else currently works after some wrangling, except:
- the screen will either flash static or go completely black and the entire computer will become unresponsive upon attempting to play any sound from the internal sound card. REISUB/O, which I have enabled through grub, will cease to work at this point, the only option is hard powering off. This does not happen if I play sound through an external card, such as via plugging in a USB-C to headphone jack adapter with a built in TX-384Khz.
- brightness settings are not saved, screen goes back to 100% on every boot.
- trackpad input sometimes gets “stuck”. It would be slower than usual occasionally, and at other times would randomly exhibit dragging behavior (highlighting text, moving windows etc) from tapping alone.
- screen will flash once on boot, and grub has a slow transition from one screen to another in the boot menu. I have not observed these quirks on my prior motherboard, so I figured it’d be worth asking.
Currently 1 bothers me the most, which is why I put it as the title. Both models use a Realtek ALC711-CG, but in my old motherboard this shows up as Comet Lake while the new motherboard displays it as Tiger Lake. This discrepancy and the panic happens on kernel versions 5.10, 5.15, and 5.19. I have yet to try this on a different distro or clean install, and will report back if and when I do.
