Possible regression on Sigmatel 9205

Possible regression on Sigmatel 9205

[Manuel Naranjo]

Hello everyone,

Sorry to interrupt you all, but I had been trying to get the digital mic
of my Dell Inspiron 1521 for the last 5 days without any sucess.

I'm running kernel 2.6.27 with included ALSA, I also tried GIT alsa, and
the result is the same, the mic works, but the volume is so damn low
that there's no way to hear it.

I checked dell's windows drivers and my board belongs to the M4_8 line
and not to the M4_2 as suggested in alsa source. I also did a diff
between M4_2 and M4_8 and there are some differences, specially in GPIO.

I don't know what else to do now, I had tried everything. Last working
alsa was 1.15 if I'm not wrong, but I'm not able to backport 1.15 to the
new kernel, for some reason it fails to compile.

Any help would be appreciate.

Thanks,
Manuel

Hello again,

In my quest to discover what the hell is going on I got the STAC9205 
datasheet from Integrated Device Technology (this guys bought the 
techology from sigmatel).

I'm starting to get how the device works, but I have a question, is 
there any special reason why ADC1 MUX isn't been routed? 
(stac9205_mux_nids doesn't show it). As far as I get if you don't route 
this piece then you don't get a route for the INPORT1 MUX.

Anyway, I'll keep reading too see if I can get how this thing works.

Cheers,
Manuel

Do you have "Digital" volume adjusted properly (in the control name
"Digital Capture Volume")?
Usually this should be in exactly middle, which corresponds to 0dB.

Anyway, please show the alsa-info.sh output with --no-upload option.
This will tell us more detailed information.


thanks,

Takashi

Yep I did. I guess you're tired of stupid support requests. Don't
worry I think I know what I'm doing very well. Tried with lots of
different model options for the module too, none worked.

Sure, I'm attaching 2 version. One is by not passing any argument to
the module after a fresh boot, the other one is by using
model=dell-m42 which should be mine according to my PID. BTW there are
lots of bug tickets opened for this card over the net, most related to
Ubuntu and kernel > 2.6.24

Thanks,
Manuel

I only see the 'Digital Capture Volume' in the no parameters output.
You generally need to run 'arecord -f cd foo.wav' to load the digital softvol mixer.

Sorry, ok I did that. With pulseaudio running calling to arecord
fails. But if I disable it, then close X and restart X, I start
getting some sound with arecord. Volume isn't as high as it was with
kernel 2.6.24 but it works better.

Here's my alsa-info

I just thought it could be pulse. Where's the bug report? I would like 
to take a look, maybe I can help.

I'll check the patch and see if it makes a difference.

BTW how are the pin config information stored in structures like 
dell_9205_m42_pin_configs been filled? I'm comparing this values to the 
ones in dell .ini files and they aren't all the same. According to the 
inf file I should use version M_4_8 and not M_4_2.

Thanks,
Manuel
