[alsa-devel] hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC268
Hello!
I have problems with the sound chip of my notebook. It is a Medion akoya WIM 2220. Actually, there is a driver for the chip, but somehow, I can't get it to work. I'm desperate and don't know what to do.
My friend helped my to gather the following information:
This is from lspci:
00:1b.0 0403: 8086:284b (rev 04)
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 04) Subsystem: Wistron Corp. Device 4085 Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 22 Memory at fa200000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Count=1/1 Enable- Capabilities: [70] Express Root Complex Integrated Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel <?> Capabilities: [130] Root Complex Link <?> Kernel modules: snd-hda-intelk <?>
I have found this in my syslog while trying to load snd-hda-intel:
Jan 10 21:30:16 Mescalin HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22 Jan 10 21:30:16 Mescalin HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: setting latency timer to 64 Jan 10 21:30:16 Mescalin hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC268, trying auto-probe from BIOS...

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Stefanie,
There are some pre-defined models for ALC268:
static const char *alc268_models[ALC268_MODEL_LAST] = { [ALC267_QUANTA_IL1] = "quanta-il1", [ALC268_3ST] = "3stack", [ALC268_TOSHIBA] = "toshiba", [ALC268_ACER] = "acer", [ALC268_ACER_DMIC] = "acer-dmic", [ALC268_ACER_ASPIRE_ONE] = "acer-aspire", [ALC268_DELL] = "dell", [ALC268_ZEPTO] = "zepto", #ifdef CONFIG_SND_DEBUG [ALC268_TEST] = "test", #endif [ALC268_AUTO] = "auto", };
You can try them with commands like
modprobe snd-hda-intel model=3stack
and report the one works for you, so that we integrate this knowledge into future kernel versions.
You are also welcome to provide your hardware information by running http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh and upload the data collected by it.
Thanks, Fengguang
Hello Fengguang,
thanks for your answer.

I've loaded the module with different model parameters. Afterwards, I tried alsamixer. As this didn't work, I used aumix to maximize all levels. Finally, I used aplay to play some audio files.
"quanta-il1", "toshiba":
from alsamixer: ALSA lib simple_none.c:1520:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Headphone Playback Switch',0,2,0) appears twice or more alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
-works, but hardly audible
"dell":
Too many audio devices
from alsamixer: ALSA lib simple_none.c:1520:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Headphone Playback Switch',0,2,0) appears twice or more alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
-works, but hardly audible
"acer", "acer-aspire":
from alsamixer: ALSA lib simple_none.c:1520:(simple_add1) helem (MIXER,'Master Playback Switch',0,2,0) appears twice or more alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument
-nothing audible
"3stack", "acer-dmic", "zepto", "test", and "auto":
HDA Intel: probe of 0000:00:1b.0 failed with error -16
