It is fair to say that development occurs on an as-needs basis and as time allows. No one's paying me to work on ALSA so there's a day job and other issues to work around. :-) > ... but they fixed this problem for other realtek > chipsets and I'm confident they will do for this one too. We'll get there. Lee wrote: > Did you report what controls you needed to enable to get sound in test > mode? Initial details were posted to the list on 25 Sept 2006 by Andrea (subject was "Re: : ALC260 (Re: ALSA 1.0.13rc2 release)"). Unfortunately I've been snowed under with work, family and other issues for the past 3 or so weeks and have been able to get to this plus a number of other things on my ALC260 "todo" list. I'm hoping to get to them soon but it depends on how a number of things pan out over the next couple of weeks. For reference this is what was communicated. When running with the test mode: "The only way I could get sound to work (at a normal volume) was with headphones (connected to the line in plug) and setting "LINE1 pin mode" to "Line out". Only that option is needed to be set, any other value in the fields doesn't change anything and neither do switches." This tends to suggest that on this laptop the "Line in" plug on the laptop is connected to the "LINE1" node on the ALC260. As to what other plugs are on this laptop and how they might be connected to ALC260 pin complexes, I haven't had a chance to follow up yet. It's odd that it was not possible to get sound out of other plugs but that could be the result of the interdependency of many of the controls in the test model - it's easy to miss the particular combination which makes a plug start working.
