Sound is a big problem in Dell Vostro laptops (and maybe also some other Dell models). At the first time I installed Fedora Core 9, speaker, mic and even sound card did not work. I had to spend serveral hours on finding the way to solve it.<\/p>\n

Here are some useful tips to get they work:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Append this line to the file \/etc\/modprobe.d\/alsa-base (this file may not exist) to enable the sound card:
    \noptions snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 model=5stack<\/code>
    \nAfter this, you will see the sound card and speaker work. You can listen to the music.
    \n (see comments in this article for newer compiled kernel)<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n
  2. Open gnome-volume-control, select Options tab (just make sure you have all ticked in Edit->Preferences) and change Digital Input Source to Digital Mic 1; then recording is fine using the integrated microphone in the laptop.
    \nThe external mic has not worked yet but I don’t care. Internal mic is enough for me.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Hope this helps.<\/p>\n

    Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any further comments or questions.<\/p>\n
