Please note, that I'm unable to reload snd_hda_intel ! Right from the beginning, snd_hda_intel is in use as reported by lsmod. (Even after killing sound daemons.) This way the recording sound is always unusable, I can't try the supposed fix.
** Description changed: - On a Lenovo Thinkpad X60, the microphone sound captured within Ekiga is - jerky and choppy, unless we reload sound module snd-hda-intel. + For machines requring snd_hda_intel (Lenovo Thinkpad X60, R61i, Dell Vostro...) to get sound working the microphone sound captured is jerky and choppy. The built-in internal mic does not work at all. + On some machine reloading the module fixes the problem. Step to reproduce : Normally boot the laptop, Launch ekiga and go through the assistant, and do the audio test --> ekiga records mic input and plays it with a 3-second delay --> the sound should be *choppy* Quit ekiga and quit all applications using sound (including gnome-mixer) $ sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel $ sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel Launch ekiga and go through the assistant, and do the audio test --> the sound should be *clear* Conditions : - Brand new edgy installation. + Brand new edgy/feisty/hardy installation. ESD disabled. ** Description changed: - For machines requring snd_hda_intel (Lenovo Thinkpad X60, R61i, Dell Vostro...) to get sound working the microphone sound captured is jerky and choppy.
