Hello all,
I'm trying hard for weeks now to get a working sound configuration for
my new laptop. Finally, I'm totally frustrated now and hope to get some
help on in this forum here.
I have Linux experience since 2003 now, but never cared for sound (no
soundcard :-) -- My new laptop has one now, but doesn't run out of the box 100%.
Hardware: Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo M1439G latop
Soundcard: Intel High Definition Audio (Realtek ALC880 chip)
Distribution: Mandriva 2006.0
Alsa version: 1.09b
Issues, I face at the moment:
- Sound works fine obviously (system sounds, mp3 etc.)
- My gnome-mixer or alsamixer do not have an master volume but internal
speaker only!
- Toggling volume doesn't effect XMMS at the moment, it continues
playing with the same loudness.
- I can't record anything in my microphones, both laptop internal and an
external one
Latest issue is very annoying, because I'm looking forward to have Skype
working in the future.
I found a little script called "aadebug" which intends to collect all
usefull information to debug the sound system. Here is the aadebug
output, I take good info out of it :-/

Correct my please if this forum is not the correct location to place
my emergency request. Please give feedback if I'm wrong here.
Also, I apologize for not so good english (I'm from Germany).
Don't hesitate to ask for more details, I'll deliver whatever you need
to get my sound working :-))
Thanks in advance,
Marcus
