[gentoo-user] Missing mixer item Headphone: Regression in Linux from 2.6.14.7 to 2.6.15

2006-04-30 Thread Erik
In the upgrade from Linux 2.6.14.7 to Linux 2.6.15 the mixer item 
Headphone was lost. This is with the driver intel8x0. The biggest 
problem with this regression is that it makes it impossible to turn off 
the internal speakers of the Dell Inspiron 8600 and only have sound when 
something is connected to the headphone port.


Is there a fix or workaround for this problem? Did anyone else even notice?

Are you sure this is not related to the last alsa related updates?

It is certainly related to ALSA somehow, but what updates are you 
thinking of? I doubt it is the last updates, since the change was 
between 2.6.14.7 and 2.6.15, which was a while ago. I have just looked 
at the diff between 2.6.14.7 and 2.6.15. I did not see anything obvious, 
but it is huge, so I may have missed something.


I have built a couple of kernels and see that it works fine when I boot 
with 2.6.14.7 or earlier and fails when I boot 2.6.15 or later.
