Though, the SSID is identical with X200. I'm wondering whether X200 works fine as is or not... > Or that's a bug wrt to volume sensitivity and static interferences? The mic boost volumes are missing in these quirks. You can adjust manually via hda-verb, e.g. hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x1d SET_AMP 0x7003 for the built-in mic, and hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x18 SET_AMP 0x7003 for the mic jack. Change the value between 0x7000 and 0x7004.
