Oh, it's better: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 That gives us same dell-m26 module from <http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt>. > >> http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt > > > > I have searched through the list for "HDA-Intel" - but did not find > > it, > > Before going to the list of HD Intel codecs and select one, you have > first to know what codec uses your soundcard :-) OK :o) > > but at the same time I have found corresponding line for my laptop > > model, so I've got the module is called > > > > dell-m26 > > Oh, good catch, you can try with that but do you really have an > "Inspiron 1501"? :-?

I do not think the lap. is too old that the code will be removed from kernel/ALSA to support the HW. You know at the time laptop was new and latter - I thought, When will kernel support my mic. ? And You say it is old. I think it is misconfiguration on ALSA/whatever side that withheld mic. from working rather than a support issue. If You will not get borried w/ the thread, I will supply any info needed in order to solve the mic. problem. Again. thank You!
