NO sound at all. By default headphone do Not work too, but if I add 

options snd-hda-intel model=asus

in /etc/modprobe.d/dist-alsa.conf headphone work fine, other options ideapad, thinkpad, laptop, hp, hp-laptop, laptop-hp do NOT work.

Expected results:
Audio recorded through microphone (builtin or external)

Additional info:
I have see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680193 and try everything but this do NOT work.

Comment 1 Pentarh Udi 2011-07-28 20:25:40 UTC
Hi. This is the real problem, but I partially solved it. I could get it working under non-PAE kernel (2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686) - PAE kernel have no luck with alsa compile.

So... Get the latest alsa-driver snapshot from http://www.alsa-project.org/snapshot/

Latest connexant patches are already there. Replace your kernel sources path in following lines

1. Configure kernel (make menuconfig -> load .config file -> exit)

(I dont know why alsa build is ignoring arch and throws error like
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686/arch//Makefile: no such file or directory, so I forced to setup arch by hands)

2. Replace SUBARCH definition on kernsrc/Makefile to your arch (i386/x86_64):
SUBARCH   := i386
3. The same with SRCARCH:
SRCARCH :=x86

4. Build alsa

make mrproper
./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.35.13-92.fc14.i686 --with-cards=hda-intel --with-card-options=hda-codec-conexant
make
make install

After reboot mic is working.

I think Fedora should accept latest alsa connexant patches in its kernel.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:34:19 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Fedora release 16 (Verne)

External mic still doesn't work. All sound seems to be recorded by internal one.

# grep model /etc/modprobe.d/dist-alsa.conf 
#options snd-hda-intel model=thinkpad
options snd-hda-intel model=ideapad

Comment 4 Eynar López 2012-08-15 17:52:30 UTC
I am Now using Fedora 17 and microphone works as espected without any change in default config.

If don't you should try Fedora 17 it is the actual mantain version or wait to fedora 18.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2013-01-16 22:49:44 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '16'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2013-02-14 01:21:13 UTC
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
