Comment 6 for bug 1789244

Hello,

I also have the Thomson NEO10 netbook (Atom-z8350) and struggled to find a Linux where sound would work, after getting everything to work fairly well. I eventually found that sound works in Ubuntu 19.10 with Kernel 5.3, anything lower (19.04, Mint 19.3) had the issue. It seems kernel 5.3 has made some enhancements to sound compatibility. :D

With only 2gb ram and running live, Ubuntu would freeze after about 5 minutes though so I ended up using Lubuntu 19.10 instead, which can still freeze if you have too many firefox windows open but is much more manageable. Neither detected my linux-swap partition automatically though so you might want to set that up somehow or make a swapfile either way (or not run the iso live like I'm doing) if you have the 2gb ram version of the NEO10.
