Description of problem: to get internal mic work, in eeepc (HDA Intel audio) there's the need to "activate" the e-mic switch in alsa mixer... it looks like they are inverted... How reproducible: Double leftclick the volume icon, open preferences and enable e-Mic and e-Mic Boost. In options select input source: e-Mic Expected results: i-mic activating the internal mic :-)
Which model of EeePC do you have? For the Asus EeePC 701, a quirk has been setup in more recent versions of ALSA: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=291702f017efdfe556cb87b8530eb7d1ff08cbae;hp=f6e9852ad05fa28301c83d4e2b082620de010358 The "ASUS Eeepc EP20" is also quirked in there. Could you show the output of lspci and "lspci -n" or your setup?
It's an eeePC 701 output of lspci -n 00:00.0 0600: 8086:2590 (rev 04) 00:02.0 0300: 8086:2592 (rev 04) 00:02.1 0380: 8086:2792 (rev 04) 00:1b.0 0403: 8086:2668 (rev 04) 00:1c.0 0604: 8086:2660 (rev 04) 00:1c.2 0604: 8086:2664 (rev 04) 00:1d.0 0c03: 8086:2658 (rev 04) 00:1d.1 0c03: 8086:2659 (rev 04) 00:1d.2 0c03: 8086:265a (rev 04) 00:1d.3 0c03: 8086:265b (rev 04) 00:1d.7 0c03: 8086:265c (rev 04) 00:1e.0 0604: 8086:2448 (rev d4) 00:1f.0 0601: 8086:2641 (rev 04) 00:1f.2 0101: 8086:2653 (rev 04) 00:1f.3 0c05: 8086:266a (rev 04) 01:00.0 0200: 168c:001c (rev 01)
And lspci? My pciids database is only on my hard disk, not in my head ;) I don't see the sound device as would be used by the EeePC... + SND_PCI_QUIRK(0x1043, 0x82a1, "ASUS Eeepc", ALC662_ASUS_EEEPC_P701), Could you please also try: rmmod snd-hda-intel modprobe snd-hda-intel model=eeepc-p701 This should force the quirks to be that for the Eeepc, instead of autodetecting.

OK, this works: modprobe snd-hda-intel model=eeepc-p701 (without rmmod snd-hda-intel) Internal mic, works as i-mic.
Created attachment 309268 [details] Untested patch That might be enough to make it work.
Jaroslav, any comments on the patch? Would somebody mind kicking a scratch build with the patch for Carlo to test?
ALSA uses the subvendor/subdevice for quirks, not vendor/device. Please post output of lspci -vnn
I don't know what update did the trick (yesterday and today a lot of updates came from repository..and I update everyday) . 2.6.25.6-55 kernel? I don't know Now i-mic seems to work as i-mic!
uhm...is "modprobe snd-hda-intel model=eeepc-p701" permanent? Possibly is because of this command that now imic works without tweaks at every boot. Or not?
I attached here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451232 a dmesg log with the last rawhide kernel...take a look at the alsa messages....
(In reply to comment #10) > uhm...is "modprobe snd-hda-intel model=eeepc-p701" permanent? Possibly is > because of this command that now imic works without tweaks at every boot. Or not? No, it's not permanent, the module is inserted with the correct quirk because the patch I mentioned above (and not the one I posted, which would have been the same if it was right...) wasn't in older versions. So the newer versions can detect your card and apply the quirks as expected. It's fixed properly :)
