For reference, here are the patches you want for Realtek: ALSA: HDA: Fix volume control indices for Mics (Realtek) - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5322bf2790fb91328aac1783bb1963ea3a172bcf ALSA: HDA: Rename "Mic Boost" to "Mic Boost Volume" - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=5f99f86a801f937ed51deedc36ad4efc47d95cdd And for some various renaming: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=10528020d7323778b60c2de04754a2615a88d002 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=8607f7c4245bc1737989d908e9c5adbfe4f5d06d http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=28c4edb71d21623f1e47422194d865d2b6712fd4 -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. http://launchpad.net/~diwic
