Re: Help needed with limited audio functionality on Vaio VGN-AR51SU (PCG-8Z1M)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Same situation for me on my VGN-AR71S (same sound-hardware AFAIK, no
TUNER built in) with alsa 1.0.19. The output of alsa-info.sh can be
found here: 

http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=939e154f7b15df6ef53bdb584146876b02cbb3f4

I didn't test HDMI output. The most annoying things for me are the
non-working MIC and the HEADPHONE plug detection. I would be glad to
help with any informations needed to get this working.
