Summary: Issue with recording, Acer 3103WLMi laptop, ALC883 sound card, snd_hda_intel driver. Tested on kernel built from git clone of Linus's tree downloaded 2 nights ago. Alsa-info.sh output at http://pastebin.ca/774211. Details: I've been having this problem for months and have tried for a long time to solve it, but I haven't found a solution. As the subject line says, I'm running an Acer laptop, ALC883 sound card, driven by snd_hda_intel. It shows up with two capture devices, Mic and Front Mic, and I've adjusted their record volumes and mic boost, and switched between which device is Input Source and Input Source 1 in alsamixer, but I can't get the mic to record properly. At best I've gotten it to record a barely audible hum when talking or humming directly into the microphone. I've been using arecord -vv -fdat foo.wav and aplay -vv foo.wav to test. I have tried other programs as well, and have been unable to get anything to work. I normally run the 2.6.22 kernel supplied by Debian Testing, but I did compile and try a 2.6.24rc2 kernel based on Linus's git tree. Same issue. Feedback would be greatly appreciated. - Paul Goins ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
