[SOLVED]eeepc900 mic not working

Ok so ever since i switch to linux (ubuntu, about 2 years ago) from xp (which it came with) the mic has not worked. Iv tried just about ever tutorial out there to get it fixed and when i switched to arch i thought maybe it would just magically become fixed so today i went to test it out and it didnt work (i used recordmydesktop, maybe its just that program?). I tried following every document in the wiki to get it working but none of them have worked. I found this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=51912 and im running the stock kernal (besides the mic everything has been GREAT!) so im not sure why mine isnt working but others are without configuring anything. So any eeepc 900 users who had the same problem and fixed it somehow?

Worked out of the box on my 901 - have you set capture in alsamixer?

yeah i followed that and i found my mistake, i kept calling mplayer out.ogv to test if the recording worked and i didnt delete the original out.ogv so i was still testing one from when i didnt fix it. Everything is good now but thanks for the quick reply!
