mikeee
gahhhh, my Asus eeePC doesnt like microphones. I have ArchLinux installed on both my eee’s (a black 2G surf and a white 701) and my pc. All I wanted (on top of what is allready satisfied by my current set up) is a skype conversation with my friends. But OHHH NO!!! ALSA seems to not like microphone inputs. I edited /etc/asound.state to set the things all on yet it still didnt use that and just muted them constantly.
Oh wait, I found out that for somereson its bypassing /etc/asound.state and just not doing much. so I added the commands “amixer set i-Mic on” and “amixer set e-Mic on” to .bashrc (bit annoying bit it works)
Yet skype STILL doesnt pick anything up… :( I can hear myself fine from the eversosligtly amped input-output loop, but meh, i give up.
Also after the quick eee-kernel update provided by toofishes you no longer need the madwifi dependency, which confused me a while, untill i found the guys blog and read it hehehe
