Re: microphone support

 

Yeah you can tell that 9.10 is still 1.5 months away form being released. But it's great to see how it stables out. The brightness control didn't use to work for me either. I checked it when I read your mail and now it works but also crashes the whole system :|

For the mic I already purged and reinstalled pulseaudio also tried to work directly with alsa but no luck. When setting the alsa booster to max I get heavy rustle but that's it, though.

Should have some spare time tomorrow and will try my luck on the pulseaudio IRC channel. Maybe they have some advice.

You could try what I suggested for 9.04. Personally I tried the 9.10 on my
computer but was kinda turned off by it. I had no brightness control and
spotty internet. But maybe that was just me.

May I ask what OS you use? I use Ubuntu 9.10 (alpha) on my 4810T and
neither internal nor external mic works. Would be happy if I manage to get
the external to work at least.

Same problem here. I tried with an external microphone, and it worked
perfectly.

  Hey, I have a timeline 4810tz, which I love. I installed ubuntu 9.04
64-bit on it, but get no microphone support. That is, I can't get any
sound out of it. I saw a sit that recommended uninstalling pulseaudio
and installing esound. I did that, but it didn't really help. I might
try reinstalling pulseaudio and trying to use alsamixer with it. I
haven't had much luck with alsamixer either, though.
On an unrelated note, I think I might be having hibernation issues. I
don't think I'm getting the battery life I should be, and I usually
set my computer to hibernate (especially when I'm gone for the day at
school or whatever). But it's just a thought, I can't be sure. Maybe
I should just turn off the lappy when at school. It's not a big
issue, the microphone is a bigger problem.
