Hello Arch linux community
Short story, I bought a brand new HP dv4-1212la and after all the reading and typing I finally got my new Arch64 to work. But it didn't come flawless.
Here are my flaws.
1) I cannot get the built-in mic to work. Alsamixer shows me the laptop comes with HDA ATI SB card and the chip is a IDT 92HD71B7X (it's working with the snd-hda-intel module). I have read and tried many solutions in this forum with no success and I really need the mic to work and the only sounds I got from it is a big fuzz.
2) The second flaw I have to set acpi. I don't mind this one too much and I know this is not forum to post it, but can anyone tell me where I can get good and clean info to get it working??
Please help me! And thanks to all the people that will help!
I almost forgot it. lspci output for my sound device 01:05.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RS780 Azalia controller

For the mic issue, try creating a file called:
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa.conf
Containing:
options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
The hp-m4 model fixed the mic on my hp dv5t. Not sure if that's what will work for you. If it doesn't work, try some other models. Perhaps model=hp-dv5 would be another good bet.
See: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Document … ls.txt#342 for the list of models.
You'll need to restart or reload your alsa modules after these changes.

Statix, thank you but it didn't solved the problem. I tried "options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5" and it recorded very very fuzzy the playback of a youtube video, but it didn't record my voice or the clap of my hands gnome's sound recorder.
Anymore ideas about it???

Problem solved. I've just had to change the model to model=dell-m4-1.
Now all the audio is working great. thanks statix, without your help I'd have not fixed my problem.
Where I can get help to get acpi and all the laptop feature working??

I've got an hp pavilion dv7 and though this works for me in xubuntu, it doesn't in arch :S
Here's what my modprobe.conf looks like:
#
# /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf (for v2.6 kernels)
#
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 model=dell-m4-1
#options snd-hda-intel model=hp-dv5
#options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4
#options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
options snd-hda-intel index=0
#options snd-pcsp index=1
And I'm turning it off and on like:
sudo /etc/rc.d/alsa stop && sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel
sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel && sudo /etc/rc.d/alsa start
When I make changes (which you can see by the .conf I've tried a bunch of stuff...
Any ideas? I'm testing with Audacity and not getting any mic input.
