I received that:
Your message to Alsa-devel awaits moderator approval
Your mail to 'Alsa-devel' with the subject
SBx00 Azalia ALC663 Working but MIC goes away
Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.
The reason it is being held:
Message body is too big: 325563 bytes with a limit of 60 KB
So .. I need to wait, i guess.
The size is due to the alsa-info files.

I remember to have tested many models.
Fortunately in openSUSE it is quite easy to change the value, but not
to find the right one.
When i did that, i right one was "m51va"
It was also quite hard to find it out and to get the list of options.
Thats no task for any non-programmer.
And most answers finded in google just say "try this" and not "read
this file and look for your chipset and the list of available models".
However that was when i had bigger issues. Front panel didnt worked at
all by default. After some time, this changed and the remaining
problems are the ones from this email.
I am testing again now with "m51va" to see what happens.

Couldnt say an exact date. But:
First OS in this laptop was OpenSUSE 11.1. It definitely had thoose problems.
Then OpenSUSE 11.3 which i cant remember if they were or not.
And then 11.4 which is my current.
So some new alsa in between 11.1 (almost 11.2 release date) and 11.4
fixed that problem.
If i see that problem again i will send the alsa-info.txt.
Thanks
Diego
