William, just a few hints: 1. Only add one option line (the one with ideapad), not both to modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
2. After changing the options and rebooting, the mic. was not immediately working. I had to start the audio panel and flip the input/output devices to digital and output only and then back to the analog stereo/duplex settings. This unselected the input port. After selecting the input port it started to work. 3. This works somehow "reliable" on my machine with the new kernel and newest snapshot drivers. A identical machine for my mother using only the maverick-proposed kernel seems to loose this setting on every reboot. Even worse: Most of the times the mic only records some nasty noise instead of real input. In that case the playing with the settings as mentioned above does not help. This is very frustrating. Conclusion: At least you should be able to somehow get the mic running on playing with the input settings. Nevertheless for a daily usage i.e. like Skype currently this does not work stable/satisfying enough. Hope this helps, anyways -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/683487 Title: Inbuilt microphone not working on Thinkpad Edge 13 0196CTO -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
