I'm not having any luck using the microphone on a eeepc 8g (702).  It
did work on the original xandros.

I have tried with
options snd-hda-intel model=auto
and
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig
in 
/etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel

Have tried using Intrepid and the latest alpha of Jaunty.

Does the 702 have the same audio hardware as the 701? 702:
keith@eee-pc:/etc/modprobe.d$ alsactl init
Unknown hardware: "HDA-Intel" "Realtek ALC662 rev1" "HDA:10ec0662,104382a1,00100101" "" ""
Hardware is initialized using a guess method

Binary package hint: alsa-base

The Asus EeePC is a popular subnotebook computer.

With a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) the internal microphone does not function.

Expected function: Microphone works out-of-the-box

According to the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes#head-e0a73989f4da231d3f1b623f795ffc86e0d6a192
"options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig" needs to be added to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base

It would be great if this could be made to would work out-of-the-box with 8.04.1 or Intrepid.
