I have installed RedHat Linux (2.4.20-8) on an Omnibook Xe3 GC with ESS Allegro-1 soundcard. I'm using the 0.9.8 ALSA release, but unfortunately I have experienced a problem with the microphone. Actually I can not record anything with the microphone but noise. The speech is audible only in the background, and it is quite silent. I have read somewhere in the mailing lists, that HP might have modified the standard ESS Allegro, but I do not really know whether it is the case or not.
Does anyone has experienced the same thing on an Omnibook? Moreover does anyone know a solution for this problem?
I've tried modifying the mixer settings, and it did not help at all (Mic boost is enabled, all the mixers ar at 100%.)
Best regards,
Szabolcs
PS. I posted a letter to the list some ten days ago, but I'm not sure whether it has arrived. If it already has, then sorry for the second posting.
