Hello Everyone,

I have above component in my laptop and lack the expertise to add it to to patch_realtek.c myself.

I think I have collected all the relevant information if one of the developers wants to give it a try.

My Notebook: Medion 98300 (a.k.a. WAM2030) (Please note: Medion is not an OEM. The board is nVidia based, OEM thought to be Wistron. Apparently rarely used sound component?)

Internal speakers Internal mic - unknown three jacks: headphone, mic, SPDIF(dual use jack). Jack Sensing under Windows. 5.1 surround (sounds like the setup should be supported by 3stack-6ch-dig)

alsa-info.sh output is at http://pastebin.com/f49962c92.

Currently the only thing working is output via the internal speakers.

And doesn't this still work with the latest ALSA HG driver?

Thanks for your answer. Latest HG does not compile on my system, throws memalloc.c errors. (Could be me doing something wrong though - out on a limp)

CC [M] /home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore/memalloc.o /home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore/memalloc.c: In function ‘snd_mem_init’: /home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore/memalloc.c:729: error: implicit declaration of function ‘proc_create’ /home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore/memalloc.c:730: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make[3]: *** [/home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore/memalloc.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [/home/bvdm/alsa-driver/acore] Error 2 make[1]: *** [_module_/home/bvdm/alsa-driver] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic'

I see references to similar errors on the list, had to do with processor identification?

Configure detects this: checking for processor type... i586 checking for i386 machine type... default

/proc/cpuinfo starts with: [...] vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 15 model : 72 model name : AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-50 [...]

It's a problem in alsa-driver build stub. I fixed it right now on HG tree.

I have also just lifted patch_realtek.c from the current hg and compiled it in a working tarball (actually labelled alsa-driver-hg20080502.tar from the realtek site), which compiles, looks a bit better. Gives me:

• Different set of mixer controls (not 5.1 though)

OK, I'll need a newer alsa-info.sh with the latest driver.

• headphone output in the strange dual-use SPDIF jack only (headphone jack

only goes 2/3 of the way in)

Please elaborate? I don't understand your description.

• but with jack-sensing working in that jack, with the boxes turning off when

I insert the headphone into the SPDIF.

This sounds good -- do you mean that you have another headphone jacks?
