A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2035> ====================================================================== Reported By: vertex Assigned To: tiwai ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - driver Issue ID: 2035 Category: PCI - hda-intel Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: assigned Distribution: Fedora Core 5 Kernel Version: 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5smp ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 04-18-2006 20:00 CEST Last Modified: 05-31-2006 20:20 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: Realtek 861 card not functional using included alsa drivers Description: I am using the FC5 drivers to begin with. The packages are labeled version 1.0.11rc2. There are only a few options when I run alsamixer. Using the stock drivers, I have these options: Headphone switch CD level Mic level Input Source switch(Mic/CD) I compiled the 1.0.11rc5 drivers from source and rebooted. I now have these channels when I run alsamixer: Front switch CD level Mic level Input Source switch(Mic/CD) I tried compiling the 1.0.9 drivers from Realtek's website(said nothing about the 861), but they did not build. In fact, the install script overwrote my asound libraries requiring a package replacement to get back to a sane state. Please let me know if there is something more I can provide. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vertex - 05-30-06 19:11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I've been trying to figure out this process myself. Here is a thread that might be helpful: https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1618 . I just don't have the skill to fix this problem. I found the attached patch_realtek.diff pretty interesting. Also, here is a link to the realtek datasheet: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?spec=True&compamodel=ALC861 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- taschenorakel - 05-31-06 20:20 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- GOOD NEWS: There is some version of snd-intel-hda which can produce sound with this notebook. Bundled with my notebook there was some CD-ROM labled with "Intervideo InstantOn" (http://www.kefk.net/Linux/Distributionen/Speziell/InterVideo/index.asp). It contains some mini Linux for quickly playing media files without booting a full operating system. The file C:\InstantON\lib_main contains a MIMIX filesystem containing this version of snd-intel-hda.ko: /tmp/m31/alsa-driver-1.0.9b_24a/pci/hda/../../alsa-kernel/pci/hda/hda_intel.c; compiled for "2.6.13 SMP preempt 686 gcc-3.4".
