I've concluded that the problem is a hardware issue with this particular
M4700 laptop, since on another one, the mic works under Ubuntu 16.04 and
SUSE. When I boot this laptop with the other's hard drive (ie the distro
in which the mic is working), the mic doesn't work. Both machines are
running
Thanks for your suggestions.
Yes, I've made sure the mic isn't muted in alsamixer.
I just tried Fedora 25, no joy there either.
The Dell Windows driver for this is IDT High-Definition Audio 92HD93 Driver
and is supported on the Latitude 3330/6430u/E5x30/E6x30 and Precision
M4700/M6700

First the obvious, did
Any suggestions for the best place to seek help with this issue?
Also, which Linux distro is most likely to "just work" out of the box?
thanks .. Jason
