Description of problem: Microphone (internal & external) is not working. This is widely known and documented on the internet, and apparently no trivial fixes (alsa settings etc.) will solve this issue. The best written reference for this is this Ubuntu bug tracker page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...24/+bug/278648 It also doesn't work in Ubuntu but a person there (c4pp4) managed to create a patch for this. Do you think this patch could be integrated into Fedora? Do you recommend any other approach to this issue? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): n/a How reproducible: Microphone is not working.
1st note -- this should probably be filed under kernel, not alsa-libs, I think.... maybe (my fix below is to the kernel RPM). FWIW/FYI/more info... OP's original forum post: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1447105 Unmunged link to Launchpad bug (it got mangled above while copying from the forum): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24/+bug/278648 A link mentioned in that bug to a mini Howto on how to patch: http://fsrc.wordpress.com/2009/04/11/conexant-cx20549-venice-sound-input-working/ Alsa bug and patch(es): https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=4163 OP's second forum post on the subject with my (SiliconSlick's) hack to the .spec file to apply the patch: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1447123 Note that I used %patch instead of ApplyPatches since I needed to adjust the fuzz factor (2) in order to apply the patch as is. The patch will need to be massaged to be applied in the preferred manner (also note that I am assuming this is the patch in question that the OP wants applied... I don't have such hardware here so can't test it). SS/jack
Created attachment 481161 [details] Massaged version of patch that can use ApplyPatch in kernel.spec
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '14' 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 14 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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
