[opensuse] D820, SUSE 10.2, mic and web cam
Hello, I have a new Dell Lattitude D820, on which I have just installed opensuse 10.2. Almost everything works well, except for the microphone, and my attempts to configure a Logitech Quickcam Fusion webcam. For the former, I cannot get any sound input. Have adjusted the input level, made sure that MIC is selected as an input device, etc. Apparently the machine has an internal microphone, but that isn't working either. For the latter, I have managed to get it to periodically work with kdetv. It is a V4L2 webcam. I have also got it working, with very poor resolution though, through ekiga. I want it to work with kopete, but have no luck there. It also seems to be intermittent, in that it will work with kdetv when first launched, but then in subsequent launches, it won't. Any help out there? Thanks, John. ============================================================================ Dr. John Janmaat Tel: 902-585-1461 Department of Economics Fax: 902-585-1461 Acadia University, Email: jjanmaat@acadiau.ca Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Not sure about a internal mic, but for external mic I always have to goto KMix - Switches Tab -> Dropdown Input Source -> Select Line -> Then Reselect Mic -> Now it works. Dont ask way - I tried to debug a bit - but got bored. The hda_intel module is not that great. Also I sometimes get that the headphones jack refuses to cutoff the laptop speakers (usually after suspend to disk) - ie the switch between the jack and speakers seem to be software controlled. By running "rcalsa restart" as root I can get it working as expected again.
