can't get mic to work on snd-intel8x0

Hi All,

I'm very new to ALSA and in fact I've never had the need to change the default setting before. However in this occasion and with my desktop PC I've trying to configure my mic in order to use programs like skype but no luck. I'm running fedora 8 and KDE 3.5.

I hear sounds fine but my mic is not working (I use a record to test it and all I hear is silence). The soundcard detection utility gives me the following details:

Vendor: Intel Corporation
Model: 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (IHC6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller
Module: snd-intel8x0

What I noticed is that in Kmix under the input tab if try to put the capture slider to the top it gets down to 0 every time I quit the app. Also and since the PC is Dell Dimension 5000 I have two mic connectors (one at the front and the other at the back of the PC) and they appear to be listed in kmix as mic1 and mic2 but none of them is working.

My /etc/modprobe.conf below:

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 b44
alias scsi_hostadapter libata
alias scsi_hostadapter1 ata_piix
alias scsi_hostadapter2 usb-storage
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
alias wlan0 ath5k

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i alsa
alsa-utils-1.0.15-1.fc8
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.15-2.fc8
alsa-lib-1.0.15-1.fc8
alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.3.rc1.fc8.2
bluez-utils-alsa-3.20-4.fc8

I have no ~/.asoundrc ...

Any help is extremely appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Daniel
