The initialization and configuration of HDA codecs should be described by a table in the BIOS, but the snd-hda-intel driver has workarounds for many motherboards. The ALC888 is handled by the ALC883-specific code. > With this chipset I am having trouble capturing from the line-in and > mic input. I can only capture from the line-in.

If the driver doesn't know your motherboard, it is possible that you have more success if you load the driver with one of the model options. (See ALSA-Configuration.txt for a list of supported ALC883 models.)
