The packages are labeled version 1.0.11rc2. There are only a few options when I run alsamixer. Using the stock drivers, I have these options: Headphone switch CD level Mic level Input Source switch(Mic/CD) I compiled the 1.0.11rc5 drivers from source and rebooted. I now have these channels when I run alsamixer: Front switch CD level Mic level Input Source switch(Mic/CD) I tried compiling the 1.0.9 drivers from Realtek's website(said nothing about the 861), but they did not build. In fact, the install script overwrote my asound libraries requiring a package replacement to get back to a sane state. Please let me know if there is something more I can provide. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pzad - 04-18-06 20:25 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >>From datasheet looks like this codec doesn't have any volume control on output. Mixer you get is nearly everything what this codec has. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- vertex - 04-18-06 20:40 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Nothing appears to work. No audio playback at any time. I don't know of any easy way to test the mic functionality if I can't hear playback. I don't see anything in the mixer controls that would allow me to turn volume up, much less mute/unmute a channel. Does the second statement imply that there is no volume control for the sound card? Is the "CD" channel control the general audio playback? Yes, I added model=ACL861 to my /etc/modprobe.conf, this had no impact that I can see. dmesg says: hda_codec: Unknown model for ACL861, trying auto-probe from BIOS Also, I have verified the same issue exists using the 2.6.15 kernel provided by FC5. This system only has two ports, one for headphones and one for an external mic. The system has a built-in mic also. Output of amixer is as follows: Simple mixer control 'Front',0 Capabilities: pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Mono: Front Left: Playback [on] Front Right: Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'CD',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 23 Mono: Front Left: Playback 0 [0%] [on] Front Right: Playback 0 [0%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Mic',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 23 Mono: Front Left: Playback 0 [0%] [on] Front Right: Playback 0 [0%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 13 Front Left: Capture 0 [0%] [on] Front Right: Capture 0 [0%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Input Source',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Mic' 'CD' Item0: 'Mic' Thanks very much for looking at this so promptly.
