Comment 22 for bug 80531

I glad the solutions I suggested helped some of you. The libasound(ALSA) package has been updated and hopefully this has fixed existing problems for everyone. I certainly hope it didn't introduce more problems for anyone. Am not really sure what sound card a Dell Laptop uses but ALSA can only detect things that the Linux hardware detection process detects and register as available devices. From the looks of it Kmix doesn't detect the mic and says its an invalid input device. Perhaps you could ask the guys at ubuntu forums who have more or less the same hardware you use for suggestions. The last resort is to reinstall everything in other words do a clean install of ubuntu using the latest version.

Anyways, Feisty Fawn is upon us an will be released soon. Please take time to test and report bugs to make ubuntu better. For those who like testing, see you in the Gutsy Gibbon Alpha.

Cheers!!!
