hi all
i'm new to this mailing list i've bought a laptop and i would like to
help you supporting my sound card
what works:
2 speaker, low volume (it should be a 5+1 audio card)
what doesn't
-) low volume
-) inoperating headphone jack
-) not working mic
-) no subwoofer
-) may be some other stuff not tested ( SPDIF? hardware midi?)
with
speaker-test -t wav -c 6
only front left/right channel works
my kernel is a debian kernel
Linux Luffy 2.6.23-1-686-bigmem #1 SMP Wed Dec 5 02:42:05 UTC 2007 i686
GNU/Linux
alsa 1.0.15 drivers (compiled with debian-way: module-assistant a-i
alsa-source)
i've already tried all the option i could think about
auto (default)
toshiba
3stacks
3stacks-6ch
3stacks-6ch-dig
neither one has better/worst behavior
I've checked the module has toke those option by
cat /sys/module/snd_hda_intel/parameters/model
anyway I've read the ALSA-Configuration.txt shipped with kernel and
for Codec ALC268 it only has 4 options
ALC268
3stack 3-stack model
toshiba Toshiba A205
acer Acer laptops
auto auto-config reading BIOS (default)
I've googled a bit and i found out that the Toshiba A205 has completely
different problem.. the sound doesn't work with it..
reading the changelog from 1.0.14 to 1.0.15 (alsa) it say:
Added the proper model=toshiba for Toshiba A305 with ALC268 codec.
so i think my audio card is an unknown model
the laptop is brand new and i only found this model in Italy
anyway i think that the same audio card is shipped with the Toshiba
Satellite x205-S7483 witch is an american laptop
some info about the audio card:

many of this think doesn't mean a thing to me but i will be glad to help
you if you ask..
i don't mind compiling some other driver/kernel/tool for this
just ask me
one last note:
searching the internet i've found this page:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Gutsy_Intel_HD_Audio_Controller
if you go down you find that the Toshiba Satellite x205-S7483 has the
exact same problem here. I think they have the same card
searching the Realtek web site i didn't find any 6 channel audio card
with the ALC268 codec
may be this mean the ALC268 is not the right codec for my audio card or
this is a really new model/heavily Toshiba modified device
i've already filed a bug
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3659
please ask me if you need any more info or want me to do some test
thanks you all for your work
ps: i've subscribed to vger mailing list, what's the right mailing list
for alsa-devel?
