Description Forgotten User 2AXImBTIXA 2011-02-06 13:35:45 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #529467 +++

Bug 529467 has been fixed very well and quick, it is about the same problem on a Latitude 2100.


I cannot record sound with my Dell Latitude E6410. The command
 dd if=/dev/dsp of=audio.raw
Delivers a file, but when I play this file using the command
 dd if=audio.raw of=/dev/dsp
I hear only quiet noise but not the recording of what I said and did in front of the computer.

Here is information on my hardware after I issued modprobe snd_hda_intel:

As usual, please attach the alsa-info.sh output always for HD-audio problems.

Comment 3 Forgotten User 2AXImBTIXA 2011-03-26 11:13:36 UTC
Fixed with SUSE 11.4. It works with external microphone and with internal one. Recording volume can be adapted with the program alsamixer. Excellent work, thank you!!!
