Can't configure mic in Fedora 11

linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – First of all, sorry if I've created this in the wrong section - it seemed the most relevant. I've installed Fedora 11 on my Samsung NC10 netbook. Linux never seems to automatically configure the correct settings for the mic however in Ubuntu all that needed was a little tweaking in the sound settings. Unfortunately in fedora these settings are different and in sound preferences I simply don't have an option to choose my mic or configure it in any way. I often use skype and would like to try out Ekiga as the latest skype beta doesn't work correctly so any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance. (HowTos)

I installed 12.10 on an Acer AOD250 machine, and it works really well(far better than I thought). But the Mic is still acting a little odd. I open the sound settings and the microphone there picks up nothing, along with Skype, though I ran Audacity and it gave me an option to choose the Mic(HDA Intel: ALC272) and it works just fine. I opened alsamixer and turned the Mic up from there and it still

Skype - Webcams and sound... 3 years 25 weeks ago

Hello All,

I installed skype with the help of the skype wiki on en.opensuse.org/Skype (using zypper to install extra necessary packages).

So, Skype now opens A-ok, but I have 2 problems:

1) NO SOUND 2) My 2 USB webcams don't work.

I just got an HTC DNA and it looks great but can't figure out how to configure the proxy settings on this thing..

I had a Thunderbolt before this, and it was a snap to change the proxy settings under the settings , but it seems the option has disappeared on the DNA.?.?

Any help or advice is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

Thanks in advance!!!

mplayer audio in fedora18 11 weeks 3 days ago

Built and installed mplayer on Fedora 18 (had working before in F-16, 12).

I had some issues with needed development versions of gtk and zlib to build - apparently the .h files needed are only in the development release, even though the libraries appear to be here by default. The below fixed the config and make for mplayer for me (64 bit version). yum install zlib-devel.x86_64 gtk2-devel.x

Greetings.

I installed skype 4 on my Fedora 16 64bit using yum to pull the dependencies automatically. Skype runs okay but the color scheme does not follow system settings. Currently selected user in the contact list appears in black text on a dark blue background making it almost unreadable. I have attached the screenshot.

Following a troubleshooting post I've found out that my driver is recognized in fact but is not listed at the sound settings and I think because of this my cinnamon sound applet will not appear.

Hi, Sound settings with pulse/alsa/whatever is, once more, leaving me speechless :Y

In Skype and Linphone: I can't record audio anymore (Internal mic/input line: nothing's working) ...

Having problems with sound in Skype in Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit.

The laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad e530. Have tried various combinations in Skype-settings, but I'm not able to make a call as 'sound problems' flashes up every time.

The version of Skype is 4.1.0.20 and the sound and microphone seem to work otherwise.
