I am going at a slow pace, but I did not give up and I'd be happy if you or anyone else from the list would find the time to answer some questions from time to time. Right now I am mostly studying patch_realtek.c, as a first step I want to make sure that at least my known pins get set up by the driver without having to go via hdajackretask. I got my build set up, I also dug up hda-decode-pincfg from the hda-emu sources and made it compile (very useful if one wants to understand and compare the pin configurations in patch_realtek.c), so now I am trying things out every other evening. One part that is not quite clear to me: what the heck is ALC669X? Could someone please explain the meaning of alc_codec_rename_pci_table ? Entry for my vendor id looks like this: { 0x10ec0670, 0x1025, 0, "ALC669X" }, If I search for that vendor id further in the code, I see that it gets patched as ALC662? HDA_CODEC_ENTRY(0x10ec0670, "ALC670", patch_alc662), At the same time the documentation in models.rst lists those numbers together: ALC66x/67x/892 I already looked at the hda-audio specification from Intel to get a general understanding, but I was also pulling some Realtek specs which do describe implemented verbs and things like that (my hope was to see something vendor related which could hint me how to enable the subwoofer). I was not able to find any 669 Realtek datasheets, I did however find the ones for ALC665 and ALC892. How specific is all of this, i.e. should I keep looking for the exact one or am I on the wrong path here?
