Linux sound with X62

scrfce

Hi,

Thank you HOPE and others involved to this X62 project. And special thanks for zhangyongtao, who made it possible to get this amazing device for those who live outside of China (at least 20 X62's have been delivered worldwide!). I'm very satisfied with the laptop and it doesn't have any big issues with it (only the small things like fan noise and the weakness of the wifi switch).

I read this thread http://www.ibmnb.com/thread-1712217-1-1.html and I want to get audio working in Linux, but I didn't quite understand how I can get it to work. I have already installed alsa-tools to it, but haven't made any changes to configs etc. Could someone post in English a step-by-step guide to get audio in Linux. International users haven't still found out a fix for it, so your help would be very important.

Thanks!

纳尼？国际友人？？

发贵国妹子图先，谢谢

反正我是装完后就有声音的，试过ubuntu、fedora和centos都可以的

就是外放喇叭真没声音，插上耳机就有了

我们看岛国妹子篇时都必须用耳机的，绝对不能外放

If the radio can't  work normal ，please restart  it.
If this step still can't fix it ，l think Hope will help you as soon as possible.

I haven’t use any edition of Linux so there may be some mistakes in the translation.the words in the last passage are in “”，others are translated form Chinese.


Add “ /etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf “ to change the order of “codec” in “Intel HAD”
Set “ALC662” as the first “card”, means that “/dev/snd/hwC0D0”

# -- X62 Intel HDA order ------
options snd-hda-intel model=auto index=1,0


add “hda-verb” instruction to set the “GPIO” controller ”PAM8403” of “Realtek ALC662” in “/etc/rc.local”

# -- X62 ALC662 GPIO fix ------
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_MASK 0x01
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DIRECTION 0x01
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x00

Restart your X62。Maybe you need to use “alsamixer” to increase volume

About the weakness  of  WIFI switch，you may be careful,so that it  may not easy be damged

Hi,
Which version of Linux are u using?
As I know, the developing engineers are working on the  sound issue on Linux and I will contact with them about the progress tomorrow.

谢谢厚朴和其他参与这X62项目。和特别谢谢zhangyongtao,谁能得到这个神奇的设备对于那些居住在中国(至少20 X62全球已交付!)。我非常满意的笔记本电脑,它没有任何大问题(只有小风扇噪音和无线开关的弱点)。
我读这个线程http://www.ibmnb.com/thread - 1712217 - 1 - 1. - html和我想要音频在Linux,但我不明白我怎么能让它工作。alsa-tools我已经安装,但没有更改配置等。有人在英语一个循序渐进的指南可以在Linux音频。国际用户仍然没有发现一个修复,所以你的帮助是非常重要的。

Hi and thanks for replying this!

I'm using ubuntu myself, headphone audio is working correctly.
Also I created snd-hda-intel.conf to /etc/modprobe.d/ and added this line into it:
options snd-hda-intel model=auto index=1,0

I added this to /etc/rc.local:
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_MASK 0x01
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DIRECTION 0x01
/usr/bin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 0x00


Intel PCH does show as a primary sound card now, but still no sound. In alsamixer speaker volume is maxed. What did I missed?

EDIT: Now I got it working, I just had mistyped rc.local parameters! Thank you yf354559030 for better translation - it helped a lot!
