6 months later and the bug is still being "worked." The MacBook Air I am currently using is from early 2008. Compiz is not working, the recording half of my sound card is dead, and people say Linux hardware support is good? It is acceptable at best. With almost every laptop I have used, there has been some kind of issue with sound recording, and it's always with an Intel HDA card, and nothing is ever done to fix it. If I knew a little more about debugging ALSA drivers, I'd fix this myself. The only work I ever did on a kernel module was a memory allocation patch for a wireless card, though.

Status in Mactel Support: New Status in “alsa-driver” source package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: >From orinoco8 at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=914510: I have tried for some time, but my macbook air microphone is still not working. It's running Ubuntu 8.04 (up-to-date). Tried alsamixer and turned on all the input devices. Skype picks up nothing (tested through test call). "Sound Recorder" records nothing. Sound works fine. >From kosumi68: I can confirm that this problem has been present through all versions of 8.04, and it has not - to my knowledge - been fixed. There are several possible source of the error, so I am reluctant to guess on a particular package yet. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mactel-support More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
