Hi,

I have an amd64 machine with

VIA VT1708/A that has AD1986A Codec

I could use mic on it only when I had Windows.
I thought it was a driver problem It is a long story

http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=128633697417335&w=1

But now since i found out the mic can be got working under OpenBSD
through these steps

http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=128634065520092&w=1

I wonder if it can be done in Linux too.
But i don't know the corresponding Linux Steps.

it would be great if somebody could guide :-)

Thanks
